It matures to an average height of 1 foot to 2 feet and an average width of 3 feet to 4 feet, depending on climate and other environmental factors. It prefers growing in a location that provides full sun and grows best when planted in loam, clay or silt soil that is well drained or moderately drained.

It attracts butterflies and visual attention and is resistant to deer, drought, insects, diseases and heat. If you like fragrance, Chapel Hill Yellow Lantana has fragrant foliage.
Chapel Hill Yellow Lantana can be useful in the landscape in mass plantings, in containers or planters, around decks, swimming pools, and other outdoor living areas, in landscape beds or islands, in small groupings or in medians and also in cottage gardens, butterfly gardens or perennial gardens.
Chapel Hill Yellow is a Dr. Mike Dirr creation that is a cross between 'Miss Huff' (the most cold hardy of all Lantana) from which it gets its superior cold hardiness, and 'New Gold' Hardy Lantana from whence it gets its bright yellow flowers and low and spreading growth habit of 16 inches tall by 2 to 3 feet wide. It is fast growing and quick to flower so gardeners in colder climates can enjoy it as an annual.
The dense, lemon yellow flower heads of Chapel Hill Yellow are numerous florets that sit atop leathery, dark green ovate leaves. The plant flowers continuously from spring until the frost!
Culture & Care Tips
***IMPORTANT CARE TIP!!! *** DO NOT PRUNE LANTANA IN THE FALL as this will ensure death of the plant! Wait until new growth begins to emerge in spring to remove dead stems. A mid-summer shearing to remove seedheads is okay.
Plant in full sun to light shade and well-drained garden soil and containers.
My lantana arrived in perfect condition. It is a nice, big healthy plant. Love it!
Plants arrived in good shape. Was pleasantly surprised at their size. Now are planted andhope they survive the winter this time. Last winter was severe here
Just what I wanted! A shower of yellows to brighten up a corner. Stayed in bloom for ages. Buying more.
