htop wrote: Lantana (Lantana camara), Verbenaceae Family, Texas native, perennial, shrub/ subshrub There are many varieties of this plant with all kinds of bloom colors. This is the native lantana that does produce seeds and can be invasive; but, I have never had a problem with them. I love the plant and like its odor; although, some people find it objectionable. Lantanas are one of my best butterfly plants. PLEASE NOTE: ALL PARTS of this plant are POISONOUS if eaten and can be FATAL. This plant causes dermatitis in some individuals (for example: Me!). Be sure to wash your hands (arms and/or other body parts if applicable) after handling. For more information, see its entry in the PlantFiles (Note: I think that some of the lantanas shown in the photos are hybrids): http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/578/index.html |
