Moderate to fast-growing evergreen shrub to 2-3’ tall x 6-8’ wide. Lantana is a popular heat-tolerant low-maintenance perennial shrub revered for its free-blooming nature. This spreading variety forms a trailing-mound of rich green foliage cloaked in a profusion of bright-yellow flower clusters that appear primarily spring to fall or nearly year-round in mild climates. A favorite for butterflies. Well-suited in beds or borders as an accent low-hedge container specimen or mass planted for an eye-catching display of color. Considered drought tolerant once established but looks best with moderate watering. Prefers a well-drained soil and a full to partial sun exposure. nt once established but looks best with moderate watering. Prefers a well-drained soil and a full to partial sun exposure.
