Care Guide & Presentation

New Gold Lantana: Overview

The New Gold Lantana (Lantana camara 'New Gold') is a striking member of the Verbenaceae family. Native to tropical regions of Central and South America, this plant has become a popular garden choice worldwide due to its easy care and long-lasting beauty. It produces clusters of brilliant golden-yellow flowers that bloom from spring through fall, and in warm climates, they may even bloom year-round.
This compact shrub typically grows 18 to 24 inches tall with a spread of 3 to 4 feet, making it ideal for both garden landscapes and containers. Outdoors, it thrives in sunny beds, borders, and as a ground cover, while indoors it can be grown in bright, sunny spots with good airflow.
It's important to note that while lantana plants are admired for their beauty, all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Handle with care, especially around children and animals.
