Dallas Red Lantana

Dallas Red Lantana (Lantana 'Dallas Red') is a vigorous, heat-loving ornamental shrub producing dense, rounded flower clusters in rich, saturated shades of deep red and orange-red that intensify beautifully under full sun, creating a bold, tropical display from late spring through the first hard frost. One of the most dependable and heat-tolerant lantana varieties available, Dallas Red performs spectacularly through the hottest and most demanding summer conditions, thriving and blooming prolifically when other ornamentals decline and delivering relentless, season-long color with outstanding drought resistance once established in the landscape.

Grown from our premium organic heritage program, each plant ships with a Professional Grade root system — dense, well-established, and ready for immediate planting. Dallas Red thrives in full sun with well-drained soil and is exceptionally suited to containers, raised beds, mixed shrub borders, butterfly gardens, and landscape plantings in warm climates. Its spreading, mounding habit creates generous coverage and a long season of bold color, while its extraordinary tolerance for heat, humidity, and drought makes it an essential plant for low-maintenance, high-impact organic gardens through the most challenging summer conditions.

• Exceptional Heat & Drought Tolerance — One of the most heat-tolerant lantana varieties available, Dallas Red thrives through the most intense summer conditions, delivering non-stop bold color when other ornamentals struggle or fail entirely.
• Butterfly & Hummingbird Powerhouse — Dense, nectar-rich flower clusters are among the most attractive blooms available for monarchs, swallowtails, hummingbirds, and native bees throughout the entire long bloom season.
• Relentless Season-Long Color — Bold deep red and orange-red flower clusters bloom continuously from late spring through the first hard frost, providing one of the longest and most reliable color seasons of any ornamental shrub.
• Versatile Landscape Performer — Outstanding in containers, raised planters, mixed shrub borders, butterfly gardens, slope plantings, and landscape beds where bold summer color and minimal maintenance are the priority.
• Drought Resistant Once Established — Deep, established root system tolerates extended dry periods with minimal supplemental irrigation, making Dallas Red ideal for water-wise and low-maintenance organic landscapes.

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 strong drought tolerance develops. Dallas Red 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 bold color from late spring through fall frost. Space 18–24" apart for landscape use and 12–18" for container plantings.
