Butterflie's favorite Lantana?

(Maggie) Jacksonvill, FL(Zone 9a)

Which Lantana do the butterflies like best? I personally like the pink & yellow. Lavender is popular to homeowners in my area. I have yellow and bright red but don't see much activity on either. I have all kinds of Lantana seeds but Lantana is rather rambly, brambley and so will eat up all our property if I plant one of each. Advise please.

Thanks,

Maggie - I have a row of golden yellow planted along my semi-circular driveway, & it's usually loaded with butterflies once blooming starts - which it's about to do! I just planted some little "dallas red" in another place, & will be interested to see if it's as popular! Samantha

"New Gold" Lantana is the most common, and mine are always covered with butterflies. I also have "Dallas Red", which is an upright Lantana, and they do love it too. Both are large and can be aggressive growers, but there are several varieties that are out there that will stay somewhat smaller. "Anne Marie" is one I can think of off the top of my head.
