About the Lantana

A fantastic annual/tropical flowering plant that produces sweet smelling clusters of brightly colored tubular flowers in shades of cream, yellow, pink, orange, red, and multicolor over a bushy, mounded to trailing habit. Great for hot, sunny borders, containers and window boxes with excellent deer resistance and a wonderful source of nectar for the pollinators. Shop our select varieties of Lantana online.


Care Notes

Grow in sunny areas, well-drained, amended soil or containers. Feed with a slow release fertilizer, Osmocote® or Plant-tone®. Follow label instructions. Self-cleaning, but trim as needed and remove black fruit (toxic) to maintain better blooming and a tidy habit. Mulch 2″ to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
