Silver Mound Lantana

Description

Silver Mound Lantana is a low growing, mounding lantana that produces an abundance of soft yellow flowers that mature to white and are borne from spring to fall attracting a variety of other smaller pollinators as well as butterflies. An old favorite with the vigor and flower power of the ever popular New Gold as it spends its energy on flower production instead of seed production.An excellent low maintenance groundcover or for the front of the garden or landscape.

Lantana are only second to Porterweed in our garden for their ability to attract butterflies! Lantana are loaded with flower power and normally flower continuously from late spring to frost. This durable and reliable perennial is moderately drought tolerant, deer resistant, salt tolerant, and is generally pest free. For the best results provide your Lantana with an average to well draining soil with average moisture in an area that gets 6 hours or more of sun per day. They can be cut back to near ground level in winter. Provide a protective mulch in winter where hardiness is questionable.Silver Mound Lantana is the sport parent of Greg Grant's introduction Buttercream Lantana.The image that has both white and yellow flowers includes the golden yellow flowers of Chapel Hill Gold Lantana for contrast.
