Red Spread Lantana is a low-spreading semi-evergreen annual that creates a mound with dense green foliage and prolific blooming. The heavy clusters of flowers open warm yellow-orange before maturing to a rich red and bloom from spring until frost attracting butterflies. Best color in full sun and rich well-drained soil. Drought and deer tolerant once established. Toxic if ingested.
