Description
Like golden suns trailing among a bed of greenery, New Gold is the burst of little sunshine everyone needs in their life. This perennial reminds us to be grateful for the little things in life that bring us joy and happiness--who knows where we would be without them?! Likes to be planted in full sun during its long bloom cycle of Spring-Fall, attracting pollinators as they pass on by. Prefers average, well-drained soils and requires less water once established.
If you are looking for non-stop color, the vigorous Lantana is a great option. Known for its carefree nature and the myriad of single and multi-colored flower colors, you will have endless choices for your garden landscape. Whether in bush or trailing form, the dense flower clusters consist of numerous small tubular flowers borne on oval, toothed, dark green leaves. Deer resistant. Excellent plant for attracting pollinators. Plant with care around children and pets, as the plant and berries are toxic and the leaves can cause skin irritation in some. While invasive in other areas, lantana can be grown as an evergreen perennial in our climate zone.
