Bandolista™ Mango Lantana

Bandolista™ Mango is a vigorous lantana with orange, peach and apricot flowers, a mounding, semi-trailing habit. The [Syngenta product page](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70087256) lists a garden height of 15–18 inches, a spread of 24–30 inches and hardiness zones 10a–11a. Its cascading outline suits hanging baskets, mixed containers and sunny warm-climate beds. ## Landscape Use Use the broad, semi-trailing form where stems can spill over a basket or container edge. The orange, peach and apricot blend brings warm color to patios and seasonal combinations, while the long flowering display attracts pollinators. Syngenta describes the Bandolista series as heat-loving and recommends it for basket and combination plantings. ## Growing Conditions Choose a full-sun site with well-drained soil. Water new plants consistently while they establish; once settled, lantana tolerates heat and short dry spells. The [North Carolina Extension lantana profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/lantana-camara/) describes its pollinator value and cautions that some lantanas can become invasive in tropical regions. Foliage and unripe berries can harm livestock if eaten, and leaf contact may irritate sensitive skin. ## Maintenance Trim lightly if stems outgrow their space, and remove damaged growth. Water deeply during extended dry weather, then let excess water drain. In frost-free climates lantana may persist as a shrub; in colder regions it is commonly grown as a warm-season annual.
