There are hundreds perhaps thousands everyday that come around when everything is in full bloom. I am hoping to do a better job this summer of documenting all that. I use synthetic fertilizers but ZERO insecticides and that helps a lot with the numbers. So stay tuned if that is something you enjoy.
My experience growing lantana here in Southern California is much the same as yours, with the exception that here in zone 10a, all of them are reliably perennial. I generally cut them to the ground each spring just to keep them tidy and more compact. As you noted in the video, they seem to be slow to take off and don’t really gain much size until mid summer. Since garden space is at a premium for me, I grow only the newer, more compact cultivars (a few are supposedly sterile). I’ve had a couple of beautiful - but enormous - plants in past years that threatened to crowd out everything else in my yard. Rather than get rid of them, I took cuttings and now grow those in containers where I can more easily control their size. The only issue we have here with lantana is a fungus that appears on the leaves if we get them wet when watering during the heat of summer. Otherwise, this plant seems to be pretty much pest-free. I’ve planted my lantana among my day lilies, and with dwarf blue plumbago (ceratostigma), Madagascar periwinkle (Catharanthus), and blue scabiosa.
Thanks for the information on how it does in zone 10a. I wish I could grow plumbago year round here. It is considered an annual for us. Scabiosa can be very hit or miss here as well. Scabiosa seems to be very cultivar dependent for us in terms of how it does.
They sell lantana without caution to buyers in every garden center her in SW Florida. Only after checking my local extension did I learn that it is considered invasive in Florida . After learning that I moved mine into pots and haven’t notice y spread. I wonder if these were treated as you mentioned. I have every color you mentioned. I used to grow them in Georgia as well. Who knew!🤷🏽♀️
Thank you for this information... we live close to the coast and have LOTS of Lantana and I love them. We learned a lot from this video... thank you. My husband is out there cutting some of them back now.
They're everywhere here in Central Florida. I just grow mine in containers, so they don't spread. And then nip the flower buds. Once they're done blooming before the seed. Pods and the fruits are produced, but the hummingbirds butterflies moths love them
You say that they don’t have much of a scent but I’ve noticed dogs will steer clear of beds with yellow lantana (which I think smells lemony). I had a neighbor plant it years ago as a dog fence for her flower beds 😂
I just found lantana because I’ve been experimenting with more and more flowers. They are allowed here in Arizona and HoA says plant away so I did. I now have purple, yellow and red varieties in my front yard. I keep them out of the backyard because I have a dog.
Yes, keep them away from the dogs. Although I've never actually seen a dog try to get into them it could happen. Also they are very easy to propagate from cuttings. Search my channel and the propagation video should pop up.
At the end of 2022 we moved from Dallas, two hours East, toward Tyler, Texas. Zone 8b. We live in a deer protected community. This has been a learning curve, as to what can be planted for pollinators, but not for deer. In Dallas I had a beautiful shade garden filled with fern and hosta. Out here, hostas are 'deer candy'. The front 30 feet of the yard can be considered a Hell-Strip. Past that, deeper into the yard, the tree canopy creates full shade. After much Love & Loss--The Hell-Strip is thriving with a mix of Yellow Lantana, Verbena Bonariensis, a few accents of English Lavander, and Russian Sage. The shade areas are thriving with any Fern, Vinca as a ground cover, Elephant Ears, Ligularia (Tractor Seat Plant), Liriope, and Chocolate Chip Ajuga...Society Garlic is mixed in both areas. As per your video, I will be adding more Chapel Hill, Miss Huff, and Sonset. 🌻🌻🌻🦋
I am in TN and mine is huge. Beautiful. Butterflys love it. Bees love the salvia. I put them together not knowing what would happen, just loved the colors. funny you should mention. I also have Zinnias.
As an Australian, I always have to listen to your videos with asterisks about things like the different seasons and the different products available, and sometimes plants that work well where you are don't work so well here - or in this case they're noxious weeds here! All good information and love your videos regardless.
Over the past few months the channel has began to gather more of an international following. I have had questions from Australia, Portugal, Chile, and India in the past month and probably more than that. I love it. I want to develop a community of people that want to learn together. However, I do need to start to approach my videos with more of a world view instead of a Southeast United States regional view. I tried to address this video with more of a world view mindset by addressing invasive and poisonous aspects of the plant.
I think you're entitled to approach your videos based on where you are - if nothing else, that is what you'll know most about! Maybe somewhere on your home page or in the general youtube intro under the videos put in a short note on climate/soil where you are, as a base point for people in other places to work from? I think that would be useful to be able to find for those interested, without clogging up the videos themselves by trying to put too much of that sort of background information in them. Anyway, just a thought. @@Dr.Warren
@@johnbiddle1829 thanks for the feedback. I know plants. I am learning film/edit/TH-cam etc. I am enjoying the process of learning about cinematography and TH-cam though. Sometimes my learning curve is apparent.
@@Dr.WarrenYour content is fine just the way you’re doing it. I have absolutely no problem gaining useful information from your videos despite living in a completely different part of the country. I also occasionally watch horticulture videos from India, Southeast Asia, Australia, etc. and manage to get a lot out of them also despite their completely different climate. It’s a given that what works in one part of the world may or may not work in another part, and there’s no possible way to cover all the bases for everyone, everywhere. Common sense enables us to modify the information provided to fit our particular situation. It’s unrealistic for folks to expect content coming from North America to pertain to conditions halfway around the world. That being said, I think acknowledging the potential for invasiveness and toxicity is a great idea - it’s useful information that adds to our understanding of the plant itself. Thanks for all the great videos.
Hi!! Just found you today and loved your video!! I have several Lantanas in pots and one of them is getting brown, crispy looking leaves and no flowers…All of the others are thriving…hellllllp…
Help Please. I bought a lovely small lantana plant loaded with flowers to put in a basket on my front porch in Central FL (zone 10) but the flowers quickly seemed to die off. The plant still looks healthy and lush but refuses to bloom. I water it daily but thought maybe it wasn’t getting enough direct sunlight, so I moved it to get more sun but it’s still not blooming (it’s been two weeks). What am I doing wrong? I have a plumbago plant in my backyard that has done the same thing. It is watered daily but draining well, and gets plenty of sun but refuses to bloom.
There are sterile varieties of Lantana that are still attractive to the pollinators. Florida, which probably has the worst of it with regards to invasive Lantana, actually acknowledges some varieties as being suitable for Florida landscapes. For those in relatively "safe" locations to grow Lantana, it may still be best to stick with the sterile Lantana cultivars or ones designated as "sterile" by the USDA. The latter are some of the newer hybrids that can set berries but very infrequently (less than 0.3%??).
North Oklahoma City / Edmond 73012 - Lantana seem to thrive - rabbits don't seem to like them - slow to come back, but they are coming back - planting more varieties this year
Do you have a place to order Lantana online? I had beautiful Lantana that was planted by the city in my front, but my transformer on my light pole leaked toxic material and my electric company hazard unit removed all of them including my grass. They were supposed to replace all grass and plants but they tell me they can't find lantana plants now. Do you have a place online where I can order them. I would like the Texas Lantana which is not invasive, but at this point, I will take any variety. They were beautiful and had many people stop and take pics of them.
Where are you located? This concept is wild to me! Here in the Southeast United States nurseries cross breed them to come up with different flower types.
Loved my lantana in Houston, but since moving to East Tennessee I have not tried growing it. We get some snow and cold temperatures, so I don't know if it will do well here.
Thank you for this. Just got 3 in a pot, orange ones, and the flowers have fallen off😢. I've watered daily, have full sun and I'm out of ideas. We do have to plant them though so maybe that's it n I have sandy soil and am in FL. HELP!
Yes, in western states lantana can be invasive and I would not promote using it where invasive. Here where I am we do not have to worry about it. Our main invasive plants are privet, kudzu, and English Ivy
I believe they do have some medicinal value but off the top of my head I can't remember. In some parts of Florida this plant is invasive. It's probably why you see it often.
It just depends on the cultivar but it will get just as big as any other zone. However, you will need to treat it as an annual. I can't think of a cultivar that survives zone 6 winters.
You can propagate for self use. You just can't sell them. If you sell them you would have some legal issues on your hands. Watch my video on lantana propagation. Depending on where you are located you may have to over winter the cuttings in a south facing window.
Don’t ever feel bad about propagating patented plants. The idea that someone could be able to legally patent a PLANT is insane to me but you shouldn’t feel morally or legally obligated to not propagate them. Strictly legally speaking if you’re propagating a plant for your personal use it’s completely allowed.
Zone 6 in eastern pa. I have a Bandana Yellow Lantana. This is it's second season and it's doing great. However, I just notice these red little bugs on the stalks. Can you tell what they are and what I should do to get rid of them?
Thank you for this. I need to read up on bandana yellow. I am in 8a so surely it would come back for me here. Is your lantana in a microclimite, eg close to asphalt or on a south facing wall?
I had to look this up and it seems they do in fact can be used for certain issues. I can see how they could be used as mosquito repellent with their citrus-like smell. They do kind of smell like citronella.
@@Dr.Warren oh, I'm sorry, i didn't know. Here, lantana is in several yards in the neighborhood, weathers heat and drought very well, and keeps coming back year after year. Thank you for your very interesting video.
Lolol! Hooray for the sexy plant doctor! Lantana is my favorite plant, Reminds me of easter and childhood in houston, texas. I don't know why it reminds me of easter, The orange and yellow flowers remind me of easter hats. Now I live 1 hour North of Atlanta. And I have my easter hat lantana in the front yard. Since watching your video I will trim it to make it have more flowers. I bought a white land at Pike's nursery, but the lady said. I need to consider it an annual. I will try to collect the seeds and grow new ones over the winter. Lantana is one of my favorite plants! Thank you for the video.
Ha! Yes, different regions consider some plants "weeds" and others "ornamental". South Africa. whoa! That is really cool someone from South Africa is watching. Thanks!
Growing Lantana here in AZ, zone 9b is almost as common as saguaros! 😂 They use them alot in landscaping along city streets, etc. because of the tolerance to heat & lack of water. Are they invasive here in AZ? 🤔 Hmmm... don't care! They're better than looking at dirt/desert! 😅 Have you ever used chelate iron to change the color of your plants? I know it's sugar-based but unsure if it has pesticides or not...
I'm in Texas zone 9A and with our crazy heat and drought this year, only my lantanas are thriving!
They are extremely drought tolerant. I have a buddy that lives in Austin and another in Prosper and they both have told me how bad its been out there.
How cool that a butterfly showed up during the filming! 🦋 😊
There are hundreds perhaps thousands everyday that come around when everything is in full bloom. I am hoping to do a better job this summer of documenting all that. I use synthetic fertilizers but ZERO insecticides and that helps a lot with the numbers. So stay tuned if that is something you enjoy.

At the end of 2022 we moved from Dallas, two hours East, toward Tyler, Texas. Zone 8b. We live in a deer protected community. This has been a learning curve, as to what can be planted for pollinators, but not for deer. In Dallas I had a beautiful shade garden filled with fern and hosta. Out here, hostas are 'deer candy'.
The front 30 feet of the yard can be considered a Hell-Strip.
Past that, deeper into the yard, the tree canopy creates full shade.
After much Love & Loss--The Hell-Strip is thriving with a mix of Yellow Lantana, Verbena Bonariensis, a few accents of English Lavander, and Russian Sage.
The shade areas are thriving with any Fern, Vinca as a ground cover, Elephant Ears, Ligularia (Tractor Seat Plant), Liriope, and Chocolate Chip Ajuga...Society Garlic is mixed in both areas.
As per your video, I will be adding more Chapel Hill, Miss Huff, and Sonset.

That's tough. Especially with alkaline soils as you get into the Dallas area. Miss Huff seems to be the most cold hardy for me in 8a.

This was so helpful for me as a first time grower. Thank you!
Eli, thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Glad I was able to help.
I'm in Chicago. I usually get an annual trailing Lantana in a hanging basket each summer and it does well. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Best of luck with your lantana this year.
Hi!! Just found you today and loved your video!! I have several Lantanas in pots and one of them is getting brown, crispy looking leaves and no flowers…All of the others are thriving…hellllllp…
Could be a hosts of things from disease to cultural conditions. It's hard to say over a TH-cam comment. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
I’m in Texas zone 9A, I had to pull out my yellow lantana because they were covering so many plants in my small garden bed.
It seems like the hotter it gets the more they take off
Thank you I had lantanas last yr. All 9 die.😢😢This yr. I brought more I live in Az. our summers are very hot. How often should I water than?
If you are south like Phoenix probably every other day. If you are towards the Canyon probably twice a week.
Here in our place they grow as wild flowers there are lots of them
Help Please. I bought a lovely small lantana plant loaded with flowers to put in a basket on my front porch in Central FL (zone 10) but the flowers quickly seemed to die off. The plant still looks healthy and lush but refuses to bloom.

You could try pruning it back. Sometimes that induces flowering. Not saying it will 100% work but worth a shot.
I live in eastern Iowa and can only get my Lantana to be happy indoors. I would love it if it would propagate here!
Even in the summer? You guys are making the news down here with dealing with our typical heat and humidity because of the "corn sweat"
Here in the Philippines we have a lot of different types of lantana, most of lantana is wild sometime we cut it already.
That is awesome. Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely love them !!!
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment
i planted lantanas this spring... your video was very helpful to manage expectations.. i want to propagate them...area 7
I have a video on propagating them on the channel. It's pretty easy.
Will they survive if I bring them indoor for the winter? I am in Ohio 6a.
I love the pink lantana.
They are lovely for sure
I bought a Miss Huff (lantana camera) and put it in a big pot. Fingers crossed that I don’t kill it (not very good with plants but I keep trying).
Best of luck to you!!! They are pretty hardy so I think you will do well.

Are you zone 7?
Which lantana would you recommend to plant specifically for bees?
Mrs Huff is a constant perennial here in 8a and has flowers all growing season.
Do you have a place to order Lantana online? I had beautiful Lantana that was planted by the city in my front, but my transformer on my light pole leaked toxic material and my electric company hazard unit removed all of them including my grass.

Off the top of my head I do not. That really stinks about the utility company doing you that way.
That flower is something that we usually ignore.. it grow like hell we use it as fence. I don't even know this plant is considered as flower.
Where are you located? This concept is wild to me! Here in the Southeast United States nurseries cross breed them to come up with different flower types.
Loved my lantana in Houston, but since moving to East Tennessee I have not tried growing it. We get some snow and cold temperatures, so I don't know if it will do well here.
Miss Huff might be a perennial for you.
Can I make / drink tea from the leaves ? Thanks !
Perhaps? I've never heard of this though.
Do you cut down the perennial Lantana in late Winter in 7b, Decatur, AL? If so, how far?
Yes, I cut mine back really hard and they come back. I'm talking ankle high cut back. Lantana are very hardy.
I love the idea of a designated pollinator area. I’m definitely doing that next year!
Thank you for this. Just got 3 in a pot, orange ones, and the flowers have fallen off😢. I've watered daily, have full sun and I'm out of ideas. We do have to plant them though so maybe that's it n I have sandy soil and am in FL. HELP!
It would be hard to say over a TH-cam comment and not seeing them. There are several variables that could be contributing to this.
Do these do best in full sun?
Yes!
I am in Texas 8a and I am working at removing lantana camara from my property, it’s invasive here. I will plant only the Texas native lantana.
Yes, in western states lantana can be invasive and I would not promote using it where invasive. Here where I am we do not have to worry about it. Our main invasive plants are privet, kudzu, and English Ivy
These grow everywhere in Florida! Never knew it's name. Is it medicinal in anyway?
I believe they do have some medicinal value but off the top of my head I can't remember. In some parts of Florida this plant is invasive. It's probably why you see it often.
In zone 6 how big will lantana get as a bedding plant?
It just depends on the cultivar but it will get just as big as any other zone. However, you will need to treat it as an annual. I can't think of a cultivar that survives zone 6 winters.
I planted Lantana for the first year. I would love to propagate but I'm sure its still patented. I think I'll dig them up and over winter.
You can propagate for self use. You just can't sell them. If you sell them you would have some legal issues on your hands. Watch my video on lantana propagation. Depending on where you are located you may have to over winter the cuttings in a south facing window.

The idea that someone could be able to legally patent a PLANT is insane to me but you shouldn’t feel morally or legally obligated to not propagate them. Strictly legally speaking if you’re propagating a plant for your personal use it’s completely allowed.
Can you keep these in pots ?
Yes! Make sure the pot is large enough for your cultivar.
We are in 5b zone.
Would they last here in the winter?
I would think decomposition would slow in the winter and it would probably last a little longer.
Zone 6 in eastern pa. I have a Bandana Yellow Lantana. This is it's second season and it's doing great. However, I just notice these red little bugs on the stalks. Can you tell what they are and what I should do to get rid of them?

Are they rabbit resistant?
I fight rabbit in my yard and they destroy my hostas but I never see damage on the lantana.
my lantana are white fly magnets. i live in zone 11.
Are lantana evergreen in zone 11?
They propagate as a weed here in Florida
In tropical areas they definitely do. Here in zone 8a we don't have that issue. Our winters get too cold.
@@Dr.Warren they are beautiful anyway!!
It's perennial.
It depends on cultivar and zone. For me Mrs Huff is about the only perennial for me
