| History | Lantana is native to tropical regions of North and South American and Africa. Its berries are edible when ripe, but toxic while still green. The leaves are also toxic to animals and humans if ingested. A beautiful butterfly and hummingbird attracting plant. Chapel Hill Lantana is derived from a cross between Miss Huff and New Gold. |
