Lantana camara ‘Luscious Pinkberry Blend’
Lantana camara 'Luscious Pina Colada' is a shrub verbena with small, round, fragrant flower clusters in pink and yellow.
Lantana camara ‘Luscious Pinkberry Blend’, otherwise known as shrub verbena, is an annual that is well worth growing for its perfume and non-stop colour with masses of small round clusters of tubular flowers in mid and light pink, yellow and creamy white with orange throats. Drought and heat tolerant once established. Deadhead to encourage more flowers. Pollinators and humans alike are attracted to its citrus-like fragrance. Excellent in borders as mass plantings, in containers and hanging baskets. Low maintenance. Considered as an annual in colder climates though it is possible to bring it inside to a sunny window in winter.
