Description

The Pot of Gold Little Lucky Lantana is a brilliant beauty from the Southern Living Plant Collection. They have bright golden-yellow flower clusters that rebloom from summer through fall. These beauties are incredibly prolific bloomers.

They're also naturally compact. They reach only one foot tall and one foot wide at maturity. Therefore, they're incredibly low-maintenance. They're also heat and humidity-tolerant once established. Use them in containers, borders, mixed garden beds, and mass plantings.

They are perennial in USDA Zones 8 to 10 and annual outside of those zones. In perennial zones, they will die back to the ground after the year's first freeze. However, they're a great addition to seasonal long-blooming annual containers.

This series has four Lantanas, including the Red Little Lucky Lantana, Peach Glow Little Lucky Lantana, Hot Pink Little Lucky Lantana and the Pot of Gold Little Lucky Lantana.

Pot of Gold Little Lucky Lantana Care

Perennial in USDA Zones 8-10 and Annual in Zones 7 and below.

Plant in Full Sun for best results. Too little sunlight exposure leads to decreased bloom and foliage potential.

Water 2-3 times per week during the first growing season to ensure that it gets well-established. Check the soil around your plant an hour after watering it. If the soil is still soggy and waterlogged, decrease the frequency you water it. If the soil is dry, increase the frequency that you water it.

The Pot of Gold Little Lucky Lantana grows best in rich garden soil with good drainage.

This variety requires little fertilizer; however, a light application of a balanced organic fertilizer ensures that it will stay happy and healthy.

Care & Use

Getting Started: Understanding Your New Plant

Review your plant's information on our website or the tag that comes with it. Be mindful of sunlight preferences, soil type, and spacing needs.

Our plants are adaptable but grow best in the correct USDA Zones. Click here to learn more about your USDA Zone.

Planting Instructions

Dig a Hole

First, dig a hole three times the width of the root ball of your plant. This makes it easier for the root system to spread out quickly. Dig the hole deep enough that your plant will sit level with or slightly above the ground around it.

Amend Your Soil

Mix your native soil with rich gardening soil to provide extra nutrients and support plant growth. If your soil is clay-heavy, we recommend mixing your native clay soil with equal parts of Pine Bark mulch to improve drainage and the overall breathability of your soil.

Place Your Plant

Examine the roots. If they appear tightly bound, gently coax them apart; this ensures they can spread into the new soil. Place your plant in the hole so the top of the rootball is even with the surrounding soil—Backfill around it with the amended soil mixture. The roots need access to oxygen for your plant to thrive, so do not cover the rootball; place soil around it.

Mulch Your Plants

Top the soil beneath your plant with 3-4 inches of mulch to help it retain moisture. Be careful not to cover the rootball - your new plants roots need access to oxygen.

Water Your Plant

Soak the plant with a hose afterward to hydrate the plant, as well as get the soil and mulch situated. Develop a regular watering schedule based on your plant's needs and local weather patterns. Remember, over watering is just as, if not more, harmful than under watering.

Spacing Recommendations

Spacing Recommendations

Space your Pot of Gold Little Lucky Lantana plants about 8" apart for seamless foliage. Space them over a foot apart to leave space between each plant.
