Lantana montevidensis ‘White Trailing’
Common Name: White Trailing Lantana, weeping lantana, creeping lantana.
Description
Lantana montevidensis ‘White Trailing’ is a vigorous, evergreen trailing ground cover that produces masses of delicate white flower clusters from spring through autumn, and often throughout the year in Perth’s mild climate. Its cascading habit makes it ideal for softening retaining walls, spilling over garden edges, and filling large areas with attractive foliage and flowers. This hardy, drought-tolerant plant attracts bees and butterflies while requiring minimal maintenance.
