Question from Shoot User

Hi, I bought some lantana this year and they have done beautifully in my pots but I'm not sure what to do with them over winter (am a fairly novice gardener). Any advice would be gratefully receivedm

    It depends on where you're located, and the severity of the winters. I live in central England, and I placed my one year old Lantana in the greenhouse overwinter, I wrapped bubble wrap around the base to care for the roots, and also put a frost cover over the top of the plant, the frost cover allowed light in, and I watered it very little. The plant had slowed it's growth considerably, we had some snow and frosts, but the plant survived. In the spring new growth started to appear.

    Good luck.
