care tips
Lantana Camara likes sunny, warm, wind-protected sites. It prefers nutrient-rich, permeable and moderately moist substrates. It tolerates soil salinity. It is a frost sensitive species. It needs regular watering (in summer 2-4 times a week). It is worth feeding with fertiliser for ornamental flowering plants. Tolerates pruning well - in this way flowering can be stimulated.
