Lantana Varieties A to Z

► Lantana Varieties A to Z, Lantana varieties have a unique vine-like sprawling appearance from woody branches, making them popular to grow in outdoor hanging baskets or as ground covers. Lantana is known for its rounded clusters of small, brightly colored flowers that may be yellow, orange, white, red, pink, blue, or purple. The almost fluorescent colors are often mixed within the same cluster, creating a bicolored effect.

Lantana is a genus of about 150 species of perennial flowering plants in the verbena family, Verbenaceae. They are native to tropical regions of the Americas and Africa but exist as an introduced species in numerous areas, especially in the Australian-Pacific region, South and Northeastern part of India. Wikipedia.

The leaves have a sandpaper-like texture. Although many dislikes this plant's sharp, citrusy smell, the aroma of their foliage qualifies them as fragrant plants. The flower's nectar attracts several species of butterflies including the spicebush swallowtail. This fast-growing plant can be planted at any time as a perennial or in the spring as an annual. Lantana is toxic to animals.
Lantana plants are evergreens of the broadleaf variety. Although they may act like a vine, they are classified by botanists as shrubs. Lantana's colorful blooms make good specimen plants. They are also used as border shrubs and as ground cover in areas with full sunshine in warm climates. The plants tolerate salt spray very well, making them popular in yards located near the ocean. In colder climates, where lantana plants are treated as annuals, they are commonly found growing in hanging baskets. The variety L. montevidensis is more vine-like than other varieties and makes a better hanging plant.
Lantana plants are considered invasive in many areas, including in Florida, Arizona, and Hawaii.2 If you live in a frost-free climate and would like to grow lantana outdoors as a perennial, check with your municipality or a local extension office to see if there are any restrictions on planting this species in your area.
