A tough shrub whose flower heads shift colour as they age, drawing butterflies into a small, scented umbel.
Care. Give full sun and little extra water; prune hard if it gets woody, and never let it seed into wild land.
A note. Lantana is a serious invader in some climates, which is why many gardeners now choose sterile cultivars.
