Description

Lantana Camera Simon Lemon is a small, bushy shrub that is grown as an annual plant in temperate climates. It bears lovely, lemon-yellow ball-shaped flowers that open into buttery yellow and has dark green, highly veined evergreen foliage. It blooms in spikes of 4 to 5 cm (1.6 to 2 in) in diameter continuously from summer to the first frost. Lantana camera Simon Lemon prefers sheltered and well-protected locations but can withstand winter outdoors in mild climates. The young plants are 4 to 8 cm (1.6 - 3.1 in) tall and come in plug plant trays measuring 2.8 cm (1.1 in) in diameter and 4 cm (1.6 in) in height. Our plants are at least eight weeks old and are strong enough to be planted in the ground.


Note: Our plug plants are intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, transplant and store them in a sheltered area such as a veranda, greenhouse or a cold frame with a temperature above 14°C for a few weeks before planting them outdoors. Wait until the risk of frost has passed before planting them outside.

Planting and care

Lantanas camara Simon Lemon can be grown in a pot or on the ground. When planting them in the ground, waiting until the last frost has passed is best, as they can only tolerate a light frost. In the meantime, you can pre-cultivate them in a warm and bright place to speed up their growth. They thrive in sunny or semi-shaded areas with light and humus-rich soil. Fertilisers can be added to enhance their development. They can tolerate relatively dry soil, but in pots, they should be watered regularly. Although Lantanas are typically grown as annuals, they are delicate perennials. You can extend their flowering into autumn and winter by bringing them indoors at the first frost. If you are growing them outdoors, it's possible to cultivate them by the seaside with good winter mulching. Light pruning should be done in March.
