Notes

'Bandana Lemon Zest' lantana (Lantana camara 'Bandana Lemon Zest') is an annual for pollinator gardens, containers, cottage gardens, and accents. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the fragrant flowers in summer and autumn.

Pairs well with Mexican hat, Little bluestem, and Butterfly bush.
