How to cultivate Lantana camara

1. Soil

When planting, it is best to choose soil that has a certain degree of water retention and is relatively fertile. Ordinary planting soil can meet the needs of growing it.

2. Temperature

It is a tropical and subtropical plant that likes a warm environment. If it is grown at home, the best temperature can be kept at around 20~25℃. In most areas, it can survive the winter normally indoors and outdoors, but it is best to avoid putting it in an overly cold environment.

3. Watering

It likes a moist and humid environment, so we have to keep the soil moist for a long time. Water every day in summer to ensure the moisture of the soil in the pot. Also, based on the actual situation, do not blindly water too much to avoid root soaking and root rot.

4. Lighting

When planting Lantana camara, you need to give it plenty of light. It is best to get more than 8 hours of light a day to meet its needs for light and ensure that it grows healthily.

5. Notes

1. Fertilization: It has a large demand for fertilizer, and it is best to fertilize once every half a month during the growing season. Because compound fertilizer is used, it is best to keep the fertilization location away from the roots to avoid root burns.

2. Pruning: Because it reproduces too quickly, it needs to be pruned regularly in spring to prevent it from growing and reproducing too quickly and affecting the plant environment in the garden or home.
