Little Lucky Red Lantana is a compact semi-evergreen perennial that acts as an annual when planted outside with an upright habit and dark green foliage. The large clusters of brightly colored multi-hued flower balls shift from the center of yellow to orange and red bloom from late spring through summer attracting butterflies. Best color in full sun and rich well-drained soil. Drought tolerant once established. Toxic if ingested.
