Panther,

This is a beautiful photo!

Does Lantana grow as a weed where you live?
They are very weedy here. I have the pink variety popping up all over my yard all year. I decided to let one grow...the rest I just pull out.

Yes it is a weed here and used to be a problem to cattle farmers here before, some of us pot them because of their colours.

I like the yellow/pink mix of colours on Lantana Camara on the photo by Deida51 which I've put on my favourites.

Does this become tall shrub or a tree?
I've been reading about how in many warm countries it is a weed, and that when green should not be eaten by livestock.

Thats correct Terratoonie, a danger to livestock!!

Terratoonie,

Lantana is a very toxic plant to many animals.(except birds)
It has become an established weed in many tropical and subtropical countries all over the World.
