Description
Trailing White is one of the most profuse bloomers of all the Lantana varieties we grow in our gardens, which is a lot! All summer long and well into fall, the trailing mounds are literally smothered in very pretty white flower clusters the butterflies and hummingbirds will flock to. Excellent in garden beds and to spill of walls and the edges of pots, hanging baskets and other containers
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing about 12 inches tall and 3 feet wide or so during a season, Trailing White Lantana is ideal for use in a grouping, mass plantings, as a border along paths and walkways, or to cascade over walls and boulders in sunny landscape borders and home foundation plantings. Its smaller size lends well for use as an accent in smaller garden spaces and a spiller in pots, planters, hanging baskets and other containers. A fine addition to butterfly and hummingbird gardens, white theme gardens, rock gardens, sunny perennial gardens and the Xeriscape (low water needs).
Note: Keep in mind that plants growing above ground in containers are not as cold hardy due to the roots exposure to the colder air temperatures.
Suggested Spacing: 2 to 2.5 feet apart for mass plantings; 5 feet or more apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences
CAUTION! Avoid pruning hardy Lantana in the fall as doing so almost always ensures death of the plant! Wait until new growth begins to emerge in spring to remove dead stems. A mid-summer shearing is okay.
Hardy Lantana are very easy to grow in most any moist to somewhat dry well-drained soil of average to even poor fertility and full to mostly sun. Constantly soggy soil or standing water is problematic. Some light shade is tolerated but plant will grow more dense and produce the most flowers throughout the long flowering season (June to Frost) in full to mostly sun. We suggest at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for best performance.
