Lantana cuttings
How do you plant cuttings of Lantana?

Are the Lantana cuttings well rooted, or did you just snip them from the mother plant? Are you still waiting for roots to form? If there are no roots, stick the Lantana cuttings into a moist peat and soil mix (half peat and half soil) and keep the soil moist until roots form. Then plant the rooted Lantana cuttings in a sunny site with good drainage. Plant on a cool day or shade the cuttings after planting so they can adjust to the full sun. New Lantana plantings need more water than established plantings, so don't let them dry out. You'll be enjoying lots of Lantana blooms soon. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
