    Irene Lantana (Lantana camara 'Irene') is a vigorous, spreading ornamental shrub producing an eye-catching blend of lavender, yellow, and soft pink flower clusters that shift and intensify in color as individual blooms mature — creating a dynamic, multi-toned display that changes subtly throughout the season. This well-loved, classic lantana variety delivers exceptional heat tolerance, prolific season-long blooming, and a naturally low-spreading habit that makes it outstanding for groundcover applications, slope plantings, mixed containers, and landscape borders where bold, continuous color and minimal maintenance are equally valued.

    Grown from our premium organic heritage program, each plant ships with a Professional Grade root system — dense, well-established, and ready for immediate planting. Irene thrives in full sun with well-drained soil and performs reliably through the most intense summer heat and humidity, developing strong drought resistance once its root system is fully established. Its naturally spreading, mounding habit creates generous, weed-suppressing coverage across large areas while the multi-toned lavender, yellow, and pink flower clusters attract an extraordinary diversity of butterflies, hummingbirds, and native bees throughout the entire long bloom season.

    • Dynamic Multi-Tone Color Display — Lavender, yellow, and soft pink blooms within each cluster shift and intensify as flowers mature, creating a constantly evolving, multi-toned color display unlike any solid-color ornamental.
    • Outstanding Groundcover Habit — Low-spreading, mounding form creates generous, weed-suppressing coverage across slopes, borders, and landscape beds — one of the most effective and colorful ornamental groundcovers for warm climates.
    • Premier Butterfly & Hummingbird Attractor — Multi-toned nectar-rich flower clusters attract an exceptional diversity of monarch butterflies, swallowtails, hummingbirds, and native bees throughout the entire season.
    • Exceptional Heat & Drought Tolerance — Thrives through the most intense summer heat and humidity, developing strong drought resistance once established and delivering reliable non-stop color through challenging conditions.
    • Versatile Landscape Performer — Equally outstanding as a groundcover, slope planting, mixed border specimen, container thriller, and butterfly garden anchor in warm-climate organic landscapes of all scales.

    These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun (minimum 6–8 hours daily) with well-drained soil — water regularly until established, then reduce frequency as drought tolerance develops. Irene Lantana is a tender perennial shrub hardy in USDA zones 9–11 and grown as a heat-season annual in cooler climates; plant after last frost for season-long multi-tone color from late spring through fall frost. Space 24–36" apart for groundcover and landscape use.

    We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

    All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

    Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

    If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!

    Please contact us, send a picture, and detail any damage, so that we can continue to improve our shipping process and make sure you receive the healthy plants you paid for.
