Lantana camara - Lanatana

Oh this is a weed where I live. It's my husband's onerous job to go down into the spare allotment on our property and eradicate this. We even have inspectors from our city council come out to see if it's being done! Beautiful but such a pest! It just takes over the bush!

Bernieh:

It grows as a weed here also (the birds -- you know)...it is still planted everywhere though. I pull them out from my yard all the time. I posted a pink variety plant pic that spouted in my yard... one I decided to let grow and everyone loved it. Only if they knew when you have one you have a million. LOL!

If we must have weeds, let them be pretty ones like these :o)

Terratoonie:

These plants are pretty weedy...I see them popping up through many landscape plants along the freeways. The birds carry the seeds everywhere.
They are easy to pull out when young, however, when they grow larger it's not so easy to pull them out.
