About this Plant

Radiation Lantana (Lantana camara 'Radiation') is one of the most vivid and reliably floriferous landscape plants available, producing dense, rounded clusters of intensely colored blooms in a dazzling combination of rich orange-red and golden yellow that radiate from the center of each flower head like a burst of sunlight. The bold, tropical color palette is relentless — blooming continuously from late spring through the first frost — making this one of the most valuable long-season performers in the summer garden.

These Professional Grade 4" plants are grown with heritage practices, developing compact, well-branched root systems that establish quickly and support an extraordinary volume of bloom production throughout the warmest months of the year. Radiation Lantana thrives in full sun borders, mixed beds, patio containers, and hanging baskets, where its heat-loving, drought-tolerant nature makes it virtually indestructible through the hottest summer conditions. Its dense, spreading habit also makes it an outstanding low groundcover or informal bank stabilizer in warm-climate landscapes.

  • Nonstop Orange-Red & Gold Blooms from Spring to Frost: Among the most prolific and longest-blooming landscape plants available, Radiation Lantana delivers an uninterrupted display of vivid, two-toned flower clusters from late spring through the first hard freeze — providing exceptional, season-long color value.
  • Irresistible to Butterflies & Hummingbirds: The nectar-rich flower clusters are a magnet for monarch butterflies, swallowtails, skippers, and hummingbirds throughout the entire bloom season — making this one of the most wildlife-friendly plants you can add to a summer garden.
  • Exceptional Heat & Drought Tolerance: A true sun-worshipper that thrives in the hottest, driest conditions — performing better and blooming more prolifically as summer temperatures climb. An ideal choice for water-wise, low-maintenance, and heat-challenged garden settings.
  • Versatile Landscape Performer: Equally effective as a border plant, low informal groundcover, slope stabilizer, cascading container specimen, or patio accent — the spreading, mounding habit adapts beautifully to a wide range of landscape applications.
  • Low Maintenance & Self-Cleaning: Blooms drop cleanly without deadheading, maintaining a tidy, floriferous appearance throughout the season with virtually no intervention required beyond occasional watering and light seasonal shaping.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun (6+ hours daily) with well-drained soil and moderate watering once established. Highly heat and drought tolerant; avoid overwatering and waterlogged soils. Reliably perennial in USDA zones 9–11; grown as a long-season annual in zones 7–8. Mature height: 18–30 inches; spread: 24–36 inches. Blooms continuously from late spring through hard frost. Note: Lantana berries are toxic if ingested — plant with care in gardens accessed by children or pets.
