If you take a close look at a flower cluster of Lantana, you’ll notice that the individual blooms open from the center outward and gradually change color as they age. Dallas Red Lantana’s flowers actually open orange but then quickly change to brilliant red. This compact-growing, butterfly-attracting selection is the reddest Lantana available. It sometimes goes by the names, Texas Flame and New Red. Dallas Red Lantana is listed winter hardy to zone 8 so it may over-winter in our area during years when it doesn’t get extremely cold.
