Pentas

Pentas (Pentas lanceolata), also called Egyptian Starcluster, are vibrant, tropical plants known for their clusters of small, star-shaped flowers (hence the name “Pentas,” meaning five) in red, pink, white, purple, and lavender, attracting tons of butterflies and hummingbirds. They’re low-maintenance, thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, bloom all summer (or year-round in warm zones), and are great for pots or garden beds, making them a popular, colorful addition to any sunny spot.
