I’m in Houston, Texas. I am a nut for color coordinating my areas: cool pinks, purples, whites in front yard; warm reds, yellows, whites in back. But I keep the lantana in a natural controlled size, paired with crepe myrtles, caladium, vinca, liriope, day-lilies, and some evergreens.
@@coletteterrasson5350 I find that lantana are really very heat and sun tolerant here. Not so much in Virginia where I lived for over forty years. Easy to grow and prolific bloomers. But they grow fast in the summer, so I prune them once a month to keep them on the smaller side. Whites are very pretty. HOWEVER…they so not like deep cold snaps in teens or below. This last winter they all died down to the ground. All but two have come back from the root.
Great video Francis! I’m definitely going to have try this on my yellow ones in the back. Your “Special Guest” seems to know her way around the Lantanas as well! Thanks for making this one, I’ll definitely be coming back to watch this one for a refresher course.
They are all so beautiful! Thanks for sharing how to cut them. We are in Wisconsin so they are annuals but grow crazy with weekly fertilizer from Beat Your Neighbor 10-10-10.❤❤
Just discovered these gorgeous plants - I live in Canada so they're sold as an annual in gardencentres. Seeing your bushes almost makes me want to move south! But I would miss the snow. lol
Thanks for the awesome video watching your videos in the past inspired me in planting 3 Lantana bushes in the front of my house. For sure saving this video for reference on how to maintain my Bush. Thanks again! keep inspiring people.
Beautiful Francis. Love all the color it adds to the landscape. I don't have a green thumb when it comes to plants and bushes. I will just keep on admiring yours :)
I am in Love 💕 with the Lantana plant and your video was really fun and Educational...I Want to be a Lantana horticulture Master....Thank You Teacher 😎✌️
Wow, yours are gorgeous! I'm in planting zone 7...and I just planted Miss Huff which is cold hardy for us. Excited to see how she does! Thanks for the meristem tip. Great info! @NiceAZLawn
Thanks for that great video Fausto it is very informative! I love all the colors and I can’t forget to mention the helper you had. Now I want some lantanas bush.
I have multiple lantana plants thanks to my dad who grew more from a huge lantana bush at his old house. I’m thinking about putting those bushes in front of my house (instead of regular green bushes). Can you describe how many bushes you have in the video - how many makes up the red bush, etc.? I’m trying to figure out how many I need to form a nice, beautiful bush (almost a hedge) like you have. How much space do you recommend between each bush? I’m new at gardening so if my questions aren’t answerable as is, I will try to better explain what I mean. Any help is most appreciated. Lantana thrives where I am in SC and just add is much wonderful color. Your lantana are incredible. Wow!
They are so beautiful. I need some color in my front yard but don't think they would do well in NJ. The front of my house gets a couple hours of sunlight per day in the summer so I'm stumped on what to plant. Your property is stunning.
Nice vid Francis. Lanta was a love hate relationship for me they grow wicked fast. Discovered the compact varieties and I'm in love again. You should add some plumerias to your yard to add a tropical feel.
Hi. Beautiful lawn and garden. I Iive in the Caribbean and want to know how to keep my lantana from growing to big as I have it in a pot. I also want it to remain short.
Sweet ! Awesome teaching kids. I just bought a house and learning how to maintain my garden and my lawn. I have a couple lantana and i want to cut them in which i did a littl bit. But how far in can i cut ? Can i make it grow up instead outward? If anybody has tips. I will gladly take them just like this cool video. Blessings
Here in Georgia we have two varieties of lantana that come back every year.. the solid yellow ones and the red orange and yellow. Mines just now waking up and starting to get green shoots at the base of the plant. We have had 2 cold spells that was later than usual.
They are typically grown as perennials here in Arizona, but for Utah they would be an annual, because they don’t like the freezes. You can bring them in pots for winter.
We prefer our plants to have a more natural look. This is especially true with Abelias. Turning them into shaped meatballs or formal hedges is painful to see. Anyway, we're looking at Lantana for the first time here in Central Texas, and we will be going with the Bandana series. Those generally grow 1.5-2' high and wide, so a much more compact Lantana than most other varieties. Given their smaller size, I am not sure whether I will need to remove any meristems for growth control.
What Lantana can I get in Texas that is not invasive? Yours are definitely beautiful but I here they take over. Would love your advice buddy. Great video!
I live in Surprise AZ and have several Lantana that are out growing their space. I prefer the natural look and do not know what to do to achieve a manageable size and have a natural look. My Gardners cannot seem to make this happen they grow so fast. Suggestions
You have amazing looking lantanas. Thank you for the tips. Is there a difference between the bush and ground cover or just how you prune and maintain them? I will definitely be planting these in my yard.
The yellow ones are typically use as ground cover but you can train them to grow taller by not cutting them back in the off season. The Orange/Yellow “Radiation Lantana and the red one’s “Dallas Red” are the hybrid Lantana-Those are the super growers for sure. You have to stay on top of pruning them or they’ll outgrow their space.
just had to kill... lace bugs off my lantana. my lantana stopped budding and i knew there was a problem. took about 10 days to start to see new flower.
A big reason why you've got an awesome lawn. It's not just about your grass. Great info man. Beautiful!
Thank you 🙏🏻 very much Travis!
great video! especially when you inform the viewer on how to prune them and the impact on its growth. 10/10

Hi! I am in Houston as well. I just purchased a whitevLantana from Cornelias today. I'm wondering how hardy the white plant may be...?

Very nice man... thanks for the tips
Thank you 🙏🏻 for watching! 😊
Just planted my lantana this week. Can't wait to get to your level. Looks great.
That’s great! Fill free to ask me anything about growing them. I think I have them somewhat figured out. 😊
Your lantana bushes are beautiful I loved the blooms
Frances!! This was awesome seeing you working on your garden! Thank you for posting! I sent this to my gardening buddies
Lawn is looking better and better every day bud!! Keep it up!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Since our talk I’ve been looking for the lantanas we want. I can’t wait to get them going. Thanks for the help Francis😎🌴
Lantanas and Bougainvilleas will light up your garden/yard with amazing colors here in AZ.
They sure do! 🔥😊
What a beautiful video. Up here in the north, we just use them as annuals. But they are one beautiful easy to care for plant.

That’s awesome Tyler! Thanks for watching my friend...

Very informative, I love those colors and the hummingbirds seem to love them too. Awesome that you are passing on knowledge to your new helper.

Wonderful! Don’t forget to trim your bush my friend! 😝
Makes the porch look bigger though

I wish I could grow Lantanas here. Such an awesome looking bush. Great video Francis! 👍
You can also grow them in pots and bring them in for the winter! Thanks for always supporting me Nathan!
@@Szdday I may try that. Thanks Francis 👊🏼
Thank you very much brother, that blessed me very much.
Very Nice!! Good info. Lantanas are great
Thank you 🙏🏻 Brian! Your lawn is looking fantastic after your sand leveling!

So beautiful..thanks for you beautiful up dates
Awesome video.
Do you know if these can grow in Northern Utah?
Those are BEAUTIFUL!
They are typically grown as perennials here in Arizona, but for Utah they would be an annual, because they don’t like the freezes. You can bring them in pots for winter.

How often do you water your lantana?
Can you keep them at 2 ft with blooms continuing?
Is there any heatwave comes or if yes then what you do to protect
Wow
just had to kill... lace bugs off my lantana. my lantana stopped budding and i knew there was a problem. took about 10 days to start to see new flower.
It's important to control your bush!
natural
Why does it up curl the top leaves? It appears to be healthy otherwise...it is a young plant, and is in a pot.
