Total:

Lantana (Lantana camara) is a tough, fast-growing flowering shrub famous for its rounded clusters of tiny flowers that often change colour as they age, creating a multicolour effect in yellow, orange, pink, red and white. Native to tropical America and naturalised widely in India, it blooms almost year-round and is a magnet for butterflies and bees. Extremely heat- and drought-tolerant, it thrives in full sun with little care and suits borders, hedges, hanging baskets and slopes. Note that it is invasive in many regions and its foliage and unripe berries are toxic to livestock and pets, so grow it responsibly.

Growing tips

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil; it is extremely heat- and drought-hardy across India and flowers nearly year-round. Prune hard periodically to keep it compact and covered in flowers.

Lantana Care

Lantana is a hardy, sun-loving shrub that thrives in full sunlight with at least six hours of direct light a day. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry and avoid waterlogging, as it prefers well-drained soil. Feed lightly during the growing season and prune spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering through much of the year.

Lantana Varieties & Types

Lantana camara is loved for its clustered flowers that often shift colour as they age, giving each bloom a two-tone look. This Mixed selection brings together a spread of shades in one plant, so you get warm oranges, yellows, pinks and reds across the flush. It is available on this page as compact potted plants and a larger bag size, suiting balcony pots, borders and hanging baskets alike.

Lantana Benefits & Uses

Lantana is one of the most reliable flowering plants for Indian gardens, blooming heavily even in heat and needing little fuss once established. Its nectar-rich clusters are a magnet for butterflies and bees, making it a favourite for pollinator and butterfly gardens. It works well as ground cover, in mixed borders, along boundaries, and spilling over the edge of pots and railings.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I water Lantana?
Water moderately while establishing, then very sparingly as it is highly drought-tolerant. Let the soil dry between waterings to avoid root rot.
How much sunlight does it need?
Lantana needs full sun for the best flowering. In shade it grows leggy and produces far fewer flowers.
Is Lantana safe for pets?
No. The foliage and unripe green berries are toxic to pets and livestock if eaten, so keep animals and children away from it.
When should I repot it?
Repot container plants every one to two years in spring when root-bound, using well-drained potting soil and a larger pot.
How do I propagate Lantana?
It grows easily from softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings and from seed. Keep cuttings warm and lightly moist until rooted.
Why is my Lantana not flowering?
Too little sun, too much nitrogen or lack of pruning reduce blooms. Give it full sun, feed lightly and prune hard to trigger fresh flowering.
When does it bloom?
In warm climates it flowers almost year-round, with the heaviest bloom in the warm and sunny months.
Is Lantana invasive?
Yes, it is invasive in many regions of India. Grow it responsibly, prevent spread of berries, and prefer sterile, non-seeding cultivars.
Can I grow it in a pot?
Yes. It does well in pots and hanging baskets in full sun, where containment also helps limit its spread.
What fertiliser should I use?
Feed lightly with a balanced or low-nitrogen fertiliser; too much nitrogen produces lush leaves at the expense of flowers.
