The lantana must be brought back before the first frost
Is the lantana winterproof?
Lantana is very rarely found in our latitudes as a bedding plant. In most cases, it is maintained in the pot or tub on the balcony or terrace. This is because the pretty flower is unfortunately not winter proof and reacts very sensitive to frost.
How hardy is the plant
Originally, the lantana in the temperate regions of South America thrives with a year-round mild climate. Therefore, the flowering plant never had to adapt to frosty weather conditions and is quite sensitive to cold. Temperatures below five degrees put the minibus so much that he can even go down. For this reason, it is not winter-proof for Lantana to spend the winter in the house, which is completely uncomplicated.
This will give you many years of enjoyment of the ever-growing plant.Lipped lemons get a stable trunk over time and the crown becomes more and more beautiful from year to year. Bushy warthogs develop into rich flowering small shrubs that look extremely attractive.
Hibernate properly
Not only in warm wintering, the plant is quite susceptible to the white fly. Therefore check regularly.
Tips
To stimulate the shoot you can put the lantana a bit warmer from February. The not hardy plant may only be put out again when guaranteed no night frosts threaten.
