Notes

'Luscious Royale Red Zone' lantana (Lantana camara 'Luscious Royale Red Zone') is an annual for pollinator gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. 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. Its arching stems grow fast, and the fragrant blooms draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Purple top, Artichoke, and Mondo grass.
