Pentas Lanceolata Pink Profusion Live Plants | Pack of 2 (TWO) | 5-9" Tall | Egyptian Starcluster

What You Will Receive: You will receive a Pack of 2 healthy, well-rooted Pentas 'Pink Profusion' starter plants, each currently 5-9 inches tall. Shipped bare-root and ready to plant, these vigorous starts are designed to establish roots quickly, offering a faster route to a full bloom cycle than growing from seed.

A True Explosion of Color: Live up to the name "Profusion." This variety is engineered for abundance, producing dense, heavy clusters of cheerful pink star-shaped flowers that blanket the foliage. It creates a "wall of pink" effect, perfect for revitalizing tired garden beds or creating high-impact focal points in patio containers.

The Neighborhood Pollinator Hub: Create a buzzing ecosystem right outside your window. The nectar-rich, tubular blooms act as a high-energy fueling station for hummingbirds and butterflies (especially Swallowtails). Planting these ensures your garden is filled with life and movement from dawn until dusk.

Unstoppable Summer Performance: Forget about plants that fizzle out in July. Native to Africa, the Egyptian Starcluster thrives in baking sun and high humidity. While other annuals wilt under the mid-summer sun, 'Pink Profusion' accelerates, providing reliable, non-stop color until the first frost.

Versatile & Low Maintenance: Whether used as a colorful border in the landscape or the star player in a hanging basket, these plants adapt easily. Growing to a tidy 12-24 inches, they are self-cleaning (dropping their own dead flowers) and deer resistant, giving you maximum beauty with minimal chore work.

Care Instructions: Upon arrival, unwrap gently and soak roots in room-temperature water for 20 minutes. Plant in well-draining soil in a location with 6+ hours of sun. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged to establish. Fertilize monthly with a bloom booster for maximum "profusion."

Safe Arrival Guarantee: We ship using eco-friendly, secure packaging designed to protect the roots and retain moisture. While some minor leaf wilt is normal due to shipping stress, we guarantee your plants arrive with healthy, viable root systems ready to bounce back and grow.
