Anyone have a good source for unique varieties or large selection. Did a Google search.

Can I talk you out of it? It stinks, it sprawls and chokes out anything in its path, woody/leggy...bah.

I just searched and didn't find anything other than this, but at these prices the flowers should be real gold:

I happen to like lantana. It's drought tolerant, though not a CA native. I like the scent. When you combine 2 colors (ie a lavender plant next to one with red/orange flowers) the result is very attractive.

One person's weed, another person's treasure! (Or something like that) But I do value the opinion.

I have some on a fence line about 40-50'. I want to fill in some bare spots. I'll post pics of existing area. Not sure how well colors will show but know the weeds will be quite visible (but I have an excuse).

How do you feel about eBay?

Many sellers also have seeds. I've bought plants on eBay and it's about 50/50.

Have you looked for lantana-specific web forums? If you find some, ask for seeds or cuttings. People are usually happy to share their passion for their favorite plant (you pay the shipping).
