How Do You Plant Lantana From Cuttings?

0

The brightly colored masses of flowers on Lantana plants, also known as Spanish Flag, are difficult to resist. Why have one or two Lantanas, when you can have an entire array of their showy blooms. You only need a few basic gardening tools and some time to propagate any variety or color of Lantana from cuttings. Planting Lantana from cuttings also ensures that you will grow a plant identical to the original, which is not always true with Lantana seeds. Mix peat moss and coarse, clean sand in a 50/50 blend. Place a thin layer of pea-sized gravel on the bottom of the planting container. Cover the gravel with the peat moss and sand mixture, making sure the soil mixture is at least 2 inches deep. Take cuttings from the new growth of a Lantana plant. Choose stems that are not flowering and are still green. The cuttings should be about 3 inches long. Make a clean cut at a slight angle. Remove any leaves from the bottom half of the cuttings. Coat the ends of the cuttings with root growth horm
