Lantana montevidensis, also known as Trailing Lantana, is a perennial, small, broadleaf trailing shrub, native to parts of the Untied States as well as tropical South America. The showy flowers appear from midsummer until the first frost and attract butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinators. It is known for its salt tolerance and will flourish in the warm coastal areas of South Carolina. Trailing Lantana can be used as a climbing vine with support, or as a trailer or grown flat as a groundcover. It can also be used as erosion control on a slope or bank. This plant does grow quickly and aggressively, so plan its location accordingly.
