Next Up - Lantana

Now I must admit when I bought this little ground cover of a plant I don't recall ever having seen one before. I just knew it as a resort in Bermuda. Now that it has been succeeding oh so well in my front yard for the past 4 years I have to say I see them everywhere. But I am so pleased with it. I ever gave 2 as gifts this Spring just for the heck of it. I may have to take some shots of it later in the season when it has pretty much taken over the front yard.

The first year I got it, I trimmed it way back at the end of the season and piled the pine straw real thick over it. And to my delight it came back the next year and have been just as lucky every year since.
