Bandolista Coconut Lantana is a compact, heat-loving flowering shrub that delivers months of continuous color from early summer through late fall. This cultivar of Lantana camara grows just 12-18 inches tall but spreads to 24-30 inches, making it a natural choice for borders, containers, and garden edges in zones 9 and warmer. Its drought tolerance and deer resistance mean it thrives on neglect, while its pollinator-magnetizing flowers ensure your garden stays alive with visiting butterflies and bees all season long.

Bandolista Coconut Lantana blooms relentlessly from June through November without demanding fussy deadheading or constant watering. Once established, it shrugs off drought and poor soil with equal indifference, asking only for full sun and moderate water to perform. The coconut nomenclature hints at a distinctive charm; this compact cultivar brings tropical warmth to temperate gardens, attracting pollinators while repelling deer and most garden pests.
Lantana thrives as an ornamental flower in mixed borders, cottage gardens, and container displays where its compact mounding habit and extended bloom season add structure and color. Its pollinator-attracting flowers make it a favorite for gardens designed to support butterflies and native bee populations.
