Planting Tips for Lantana Flower Plant

  1. Site Selection:
    • Choose a location with at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
    • Ideal for garden borders, containers, and hanging baskets.
  2. Soil Preparation:
    • Ensure well-drained soil to prevent root rot.
    • Amend with compost for added nutrients if the soil is poor.

    • Once established, water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry between waterings.
