Water lantana thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, especially during cooler months.

Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage. Reduce watering frequency in winter.

Prune lantana in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged stems.

You can also deadhead spent blooms throughout the growing season to encourage more flowering and maintain a tidy appearance. Heavy pruning can rejuvenate overgrown plants.

Propagate lantana from softwood cuttings taken in spring or semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining potting mix, keeping them consistently moist and warm.

Successful propagation can also occur from seed, but may not produce true-to-type plants.

Repot young lantana plants annually or every two years into slightly larger containers. Established plants may only need repotting every 2-3 years. Repot in spring before new growth begins.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
