That definitely would explain what's going on in my yard. I did not get a chance to cut anything back for winter and now everything is growing wildly. All of the dead limbs and stems came back to life.

This was more organized last year. (about 45 days ago)



This year I don't know what's going on. I cut back to watering everything every other day for 15 minutes.

Yours is probably also more established..I just planted my front yard last November The landscaping posse is returning in a few days to do maintenance and move on to the back yard I also wonder if it may (or may not) be bees or other bugs pollenating the plants that would give you the variation...interesting...
BTW, are you back in the States now??

IIRC.....I read once[or heard] that lantana change colors from year to year based upon the conditions...i.e. water, feed etc etc....for a deinitive answer...stop by PLANT WORLD on W Charleston and talk to the guys behind the counter.....they've been supplying the gardens here for 3 million years..... or so

Yes I am back in Vegas. About 2 months now. The pollinating theory might be whats going.

I probably need to go check those guys out because the people at the Lowes near my house don't know jack. I get an "I'm not sure" answer for every question I ask.
