Lantana camara

Lantana camara is a sun‑loving shrub‑like annual prized for its clusters of color‑changing blooms and unrivaled heat and drought tolerance- perfect for pollinator gardens, xeriscapes, and blazing hot patio containers. Thriving in full sun, well‑drained soil, and moderate fertility, lantana keeps flowering through extreme heat, humidity, and light frosts, making it an easy‑care choice for gardeners and a low‑maintenance crop for growers.
Remove from mist quickly; spray adjuvant at sticking. pH 5.8–6.2, EC 0.8–1.2, feed 50 ppm N then 100–150 ppm N. Daminozide 2,000–2,500 ppm; pinch week 4 or at transplant. Fungicide at sticking and week 2.

Danziger’s Lantana breeding delivers vibrant color blends, tight branching, and reduced seed set for cleaner retail presentation and longer bloom windows across two complementary series:

• GEM™
  Vigorous, mounded habit with large flower umbels that shift in hue as they mature—ideal for gallons, landscape beds, and pollinator projects needing bold, season‑long color.
• GEM™ COMPACT
  All the radiant color of GEM in a tighter, neater form. Finishes fast in smaller pots and stays controlled on the bench while still packing gardens and patio planters with nonstop blooms.
