Lantana Little Lucky™ Red

Little Lucky™ Red is a compact, mounding lantana with bright red flower clusters and a neat 10–12-inch height and spread. Ball FloraPlant describes this named selection as early to bloom, uniform in habit and useful where a smaller lantana is needed. ## Garden Use Place it at the front of a sunny border, along an edging or in patio containers. Its low rounded form also works in repeated groups, where the red flowers provide a clear seasonal accent. Lantana flowers attract butterflies, and the species is commonly grown as an annual in regions with winter frost. ## Growing Conditions Give this selection full sun and a well-drained planting mix. The breeder recommends allowing the mix to dry between waterings and lists the plant at 10–12 inches tall and wide. The exact patented denomination is ‘Balluced’; Ball currently identifies it as PPAF, meaning a patent application is pending, rather than showing a granted patent number. NC State Extension’s [species profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/lantana-camara/) covers broader lantana care and notes that plant parts can be toxic if eaten. The official [Ball FloraPlant detail page](https://www.ballfloraplant.com/Products/Details/?phid=036906551004463) provides the selection’s habit and dimensions. ## Maintenance Water during establishment and check containers often in warm weather. Pinch or trim only as needed to maintain a compact outline, and remove spent flower heads if appearance or seed control calls for it.
