Key Takeaways:
- Lantana plants are tough flowering annuals or perennials. They thrive in hot, sunny locations and are drought tolerant once established.
- Lantanas are resilient plants with a full season’s beautiful flowers but even the hardiest specimens can be prey to pest and disease problems or simply cultural inconsistencies.
- While they are drought tolerant once mature, they still require deep watering from the base of the plant once per week in the summer.
