You can order Pentas Lucky Star® Dark Red Flower Seeds here for home gardens or shop smaller seed packs for a variety of flower types. Bulk packs are available from our bulk seed site.

Why Choose Pentas Lucky Star® Dark Red?

The Lucky Star® series is renowned for its quick flowering and uniform growth. This Dark Red variety stands out for its rich, velvety hue that pairs beautifully with other summer flowers.

Key Benefits:

Heat & Drought Tolerant: Perfect for summer gardens.
Pollinator Magnet: Attracts butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds.
Long Bloom Time: Blooms from spring through frost.
Low Maintenance: Minimal deadheading needed.

How to Grow Pentas from Seed

Start Indoors: Sow pelleted seeds 8–10 weeks before the last frost date.
Light Requirement: Do not cover seeds; they need light to germinate.
Temperature: Keep between 70–75°F for best results.
Transplanting: Move outdoors after all danger of frost has passed.
Care: Full sun and moderate watering will keep them thriving.

Designing with Pentas Dark Red

Pentas Lucky Star® Dark Red makes a stunning impact when planted en masse or paired with contrasting blooms like yellow zinnias, white vinca, or sunflowers. For a truly eye-catching combination, mix with soft yellows for a striking contrast.

For example, you can complement your Pentas with Lisianthus Super Magic Yellow for a bright, elegant summer display that offers a perfect balance of rich and light tones.
