Purple lantana is my favorite flower ever. I grew up with it literally everywhere in my yard, and used to pick the flowers all the time as a young girl. But where I live now, they are sadly just annuals 🥲 also, can't find the purple variety anywhere. I love that you grew yours from a clipping! Did you root it in water first? How large of it clipping was it??

Purple lantana exists?? Why am I just finding out about this now 😮 I did root it in water for a while yes, and it was only about a few cm long.
