Lantana Seeds grow into perennial, bushy shrubs with aromatic foliage and clusters of small, tubular flowers in vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow, pink, or multi-colored varieties. They thrive in warm, frost-free climates with full sun and well-draining soil. Lantana is ideal for garden beds, borders, hedges, and container planting, providing long-lasting blooms from spring through fall and attracting butterflies and other pollinators.
