The Shamrock™ series is specifically bred for a mounded, uniform habit that won't take over the garden. 'Orange Flame' features stunning clusters of fiery orange and bright yellow blooms that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. While Lantana is famously tough in Houston's heat and humidity, this variety thrives in well-aerated soil. If planting in heavy clay, it is best to amend with compost or expanded shale to prevent the root ball from staying too saturated during our rainy periods.
Exposure
Full Sun (6+ hours)
Height x Width
12-16 in. Tall x 12-16 in. Wide
Water
Low to Medium; drought tolerant once established. Do not overwater.
Zones
9 - 11 (Perennial in most Houston winters)
Fertilization
Lightly fertilize in spring with a balanced slow-release food. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers which reduce blooming.
Pruning
Lightly prune or "deadhead" to encourage continuous blooming. Cut back significantly in late winter if needed.
