Process :
1. Lantana prefers a moist but well drained soil in full sun. It will benefit from being fed regularly during the growing season, which occurs in spring and summer.
2. Water lantana regularly for the first three weeks after planting. Afterward, water only during dry spells and after pruning.
3. Apply a 2- to 3-inch layer of mulch around the plant to help the soil hold moisture and reduce weeds.
4. Fertilize annually in early spring with a small amount of low-nitrogen fertilizer or a shovelful of compost.
5. Shear of the tips of the plants periodically in the summer to remove the old blossoms and encourage new ones.
6. Fertilize lightly and water deeply after shearing.
