Searching for a worthy plant to use for this month's blog post, I had only to step out onto our loading dock - to capture these bright yellow blooms
. Lantana montevidensis is an evergreen vining shrub from the tropics. The small flowers are arranged in clusters and range from white to yellow, orange to red, pink to rose, and in unlimited combinations. The genus Lantana has over 100 species, is very easy to grow, has low water requirements and is excellent for bank covering and to help control erosion. Use also for raised beds, planter boxes or hanging boxes. Attractive to birds and butterflies.
