Description

Lantana 'Irene is a perennial upright shrub that is a staple in many areas due to its low maintenance and pretty flowers. It reaches 3' tall and 4' wide quickly. During the summer, flowers open yellow but turn magenta with age. It takes full sun and deep infrequent watering. Foliage is damaged by cold but will come right back if cut back.

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
