My mind has gone blank! In Calif. and in warmer climes Lantana grows. Here in the PNW a similarly flowered plant grows. Small clusters of flowers with the outside flowers a darker color (say orange) and the center flowers lighter (say yellow). Does anyone remember a plant like this for the PNW? barb
That's good to know S dad, but I'm not much on taking things out and storing them for the winter. If it can't handle the winters, it's gone. I might try to find the purple/lavender Lantana and see if I can find a sheltered enough place and give it a try. It's a problem when you have favorite plants and then move to a different clim. I tried PNW Plants in the Bay Area & Sacramento and they usually went nuts or died of heat stroke. Now trying to bring Calif. favorites back to the PNW. Some times "It Just Don't Work". barb
If you want purple try this one. Local outlets often have it. http://plantdelights.com/Catalog/Current/Detail/01150.html
I think I'll give up on Lantana. Was talking to a fellow gardener Thurs and she said, yes, She grew them in Saudi Arabia all the time. I think Saudi is no where close to zone 5, so I'm not even going to go there. I have such limited space that I really have to pick and choose. barb
