Notes

'Luscious Goldengate' lantana (Lantana camara 'Luscious Goldengate') is an annual for pollinator gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. 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 blooms.

Pairs well with Blood flower, Pineapple sage, and Mammoth Grey Stripe sunflower.
