The star guinea flower is primarily used as an ornamental plant due to its stunning orange flowers. It can serve as an attractive ground cover, adding vibrant color to gardens. However, it is essential to plant it in well-drained soil to prevent root diseases, particularly from phytophthora, which it is sensitive to.
