Description

Lucky Lantana (Lantana camara), also simply known as Lantana, is a sun-loving perennial prized for its clusters of bright, multicolored flowers and hardy nature. Originating from the tropical Americas, Lucky Lantana blooms in warm hues such as orange, yellow, pink, purple, and red, often transitioning in color as they mature. These small, tubular flowers attract pollinators like butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, adding life to the landscape throughout its blooming season, which typically lasts from spring through fall.

This compact, low-growing variety of lantana reaches around 1 to 2 feet in height and spread, forming dense, rounded mounds of foliage. Lucky Lantana thrives in full sun and is hardy in USDA zones 8-11, though it can also be grown as an annual in cooler regions. Known for its resilience, this plant tolerates heat, humidity, and drought once established, and performs well in well-draining soil.

Perfect for garden borders, rock gardens, ground covers, and containers, Lucky Lantana adds a vibrant pop of color to any sunny spot. It is low-maintenance, requiring little more than occasional pruning to encourage new growth and shape, and is resistant to deer and many pests. With its bright, cheerful blooms, drought tolerance, and appeal to pollinators, Lucky Lantana is a popular choice for gardeners seeking a reliable, colorful addition to their outdoor spaces.
