Care Guide & Presentation

Lantana Wagon Wheel Pink: Overview

The Lantana Wagon Wheel Pink is native to tropical regions of the Americas. This hardy lantana plant typically grows 2 to 3 feet tall and spreads widely, creating a full and colorful display. It blooms generously from spring through late fall, offering continuous waves of color that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. Best suited for outdoor gardens, patios, and sunny borders, it can also be grown indoors in bright, sunny spots with good airflow. While admired for its long-lasting flowers and resilience, it is important to note that all parts of the plant are toxic if ingested by pets or humans. With its versatility, extended bloom season, and easy-care nature, this plant is a favorite for both home gardeners and landscapers.

Care Guide

Easy to care for, lantana plants thrive with very little attention, making them a gardener's favorite.

Light and Water

  • Light: Needs full sun for at least 6 hours daily to bloom best and stay compact.
  • Water: Water regularly in the first season; reduce once established as it becomes drought-tolerant.

Soil and Fertilization

  • Soil: Prefers well-drained soil to prevent root rot and ensure healthy growth.
  • Fertilizer: Feed monthly with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Thrives in warm weather above 60°F (15°C); not frost-tolerant.
  • Humidity: Adapts well to average humidity and handles dry air with ease.

Pruning, Propagating, and Repotting

  • Pruning: Trim lightly to shape the plant and encourage continuous blooming.
  • Propagating: Easily propagated from stem cuttings taken in spring or early summer.
  • Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years to refresh soil and maintain vigor in containers.

Common Problems

  • Pests: Occasionally attracts aphids or whiteflies; treat with insecticidal soap if needed.
  • Overwatering: It can cause root rot, so ensure the soil drains well and doesn't let it stay soggy.
  • Fungal Issues: Avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of leaf diseases.

Best Location and Uses

  • Great for sunny patios, borders, and walkways that need long-lasting color.
  • Ideal for containers, hanging baskets, and raised garden beds in full sun.
  • Works well in pollinator gardens, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds.
  • It can be grown indoors near bright, sunny windows with good airflow.
