Description

Cuphea × Stellar ‘Light Pink’ is a compact, evergreen subshrub appreciated for its fine-textured foliage and masses of delicate, trumpet-shaped light pink flowers that bloom profusely from late spring through first frost. It is a hybrid selection of Cuphea hyssopifolia, native to Mexico and Central America, and thrives in hot, sunny locations with well-drained soil. Heat‑ and drought‑tolerant once established, it’s commonly used as a border, edging plant, or in containers. The cultivar is notably low-maintenance with self-cleaning blooms.

Fine, fern-like glossy foliage adorned with hundreds of small, long-lasting light-pink bloom clusters.
Extensive flowering period—from late spring until frost—with flowers that self-clean, eliminating the need for deadheading.
Exceptional heat, drought, and humidity tolerance; maintains evergreen habit in mild climates and draws in pollinators like butterflies and hummingbirds.
