- Plant in a location that receives at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight a day.
- While unfussy about soil type, does best in a rich, well-drained spot.
- Once established, water only occasionally except during periods of extreme drought.
- In frost-free regions lantana is a durable perennial; in colder zones, use lantana as an annual flower.
