I love this Dallas Red Lantana (Lantana camara ‘Dallas Red’) I bought this summer. I had never seen this color before until I stumbled upon it at a local nursery. I potted them in a terra cotta windowbox container and they are thriving, even in this summer heat of 100+ degree days. Granted I do protect them from the afternoon sun.
I only wish I had planted this under the Southern Red Oak tree instead of the ‘ Confetti’ cultivar.
Some Lantana I have planted in the past, look awful by the end of the season. They become dry, brittle and the leaves curl a bit. I hope this ones sticks around. It seems perfect for my new container garden.

Thank you. It is one of the prettiest Lantana that I’ve seen. I am really enjoying it.

I love Lantana, but I’ve never seen that dark red version before. I’m enjoying Lantana Carlos this year, with party-like bright colors.
