This Low-Growing, Floriferous Wonder Laughs at Heat and Drought!
Pentas New Look Rose
A whole New Look in Pentas--compact, floriferous, garden-worthy!
Remember when Pentas was a leggy tropical houseplant? Take a New Look at this compact, densely-branched seed variety!
One of the hottest plants for bedding and containers these days, New Look is really an entirely different type of Pentas, both in habit and bloom power! These rich, rose-colored stars arise in big constellations atop lush, large foliage on plants that grow no more than 8 to 10 inches tall! Just the right size for a container or basket, they are also super as edging, bedding, or in the front of the border. And their garden performance is fantastic--they thrive in heat and drought, blooming in full sun all season long!
These plants owe their colorful display to a very well-branched habit, and now you can grow this habit from seed! They are even suitable as houseplants in brightly-lit spots. A superb performer and trouble-free source of bright color! Pkt is 20 pelleted seeds.
