Notes
'Balluced' lantana (Lantana camara 'Balluced') is a shrub for pollinator gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the scarlet red, orange, and yellow blooms. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Its arching stems grow fast and stay evergreen.
Pairs well with Pineapple sage, Lemon grass, and Mystic Illusion dahlia.
