Lantana ‘Bandana® Cherry Sunrise’

Lantana 01

Just try to look away from this plant. With its brilliant shades and plentiful blossoms, ‘Cherry Sunrise’ is one of the most unique color selections in the Bandana® series. Each large flower cluster is a glowing display in at least four colors: sunny yellow, apricot, deep pink, and cherry red.

Notice the lush, dark green foliage—it’s fragrant and compact, keeping a tight, dense mound throughout the season. Though smaller than traditional lantana at about 18–24 inches tall, Bandana® varieties are tough, standing up to heat, humidity, and drought equally well. They also thrive on neglect, growing in a range of poor soils and requiring little to no supplemental water once they’re in the ground. 

Use this selection en masse in the landscape as a vivid sprawling groundcover. ‘Cherry Sunrise’ also has a nice trailing habit for brightening containers and hanging baskets. Hummingbirds, butterflies, and songbirds find it appealing.

‘Bandana® Cherry Sunrise’ is available in the flat speedy 8.
