The Beautiful Flower That Will Help Fill Your Yard With Hummingbirds
By LAUREN KRYSTAF
One of the best ways to construct a garden is to implement flowers that hummingbirds love. Pentas are stunning and easy to grow, making them a must-have in any yard.
Pentas’ star-shaped, tubular flowers come in a variety of colors, including red and pink, which are highly attractive to hummingbirds. Additionally, they’ll bloom all summer long.
Growing up to 2 feet tall, they are the perfect size to combine with other perennials, plant in the middle of the garden, fill containers, or line walkways and paths.
The gorgeous flowers can be grown from seeds or starter plants, and they thrive in full sun. While they prefer well-draining soil, they can handle a range of types and pH levels.
