Lantana camara Bloomify Orange - - West Indian Lantana

Lantana Bloomify™ Orange ('Baloomor') is a striking variety from the Bloomify series, renowned for its continuous flowering and hardiness. Certified 100% sterile, this annual plant dedicates all its energy to producing rounded clusters of flowers throughout the season. The inflorescences open to a bright sunny yellow and gradually take on vibrant orange hues as they mature. Perfect for flower beds and large containers, this lantana brings warmth and vitality to the garden or balcony from June until the first frosts.

Lantana 'Bloomify Orange' belongs to the verbena family, related to verbenas. The origins of its wild parent, Lantana camara, also known as common lantana or camara, lie in a vast area including Mexico, Central America, the Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, Colombia, and Venezuela. It has naturalised in many subtropical regions where it is considered invasive. It has given rise to numerous cultivars, including the sterile Bloomify hybrids, which do not produce seeds. These plants therefore, devote all their energy to flowering tirelessly, without the possibility of escaping into the wild. This compact, well-branched variety reaches 40 cm in height and width in a single season. Compared to standard varieties, it offers denser flowering and excellent branching. Later-flowering than the Lucky series, it begins flowering with a delay of 1 to 2 weeks but compensates with its sustained and long-lasting blooms.

Suited to sunny spots, this lantana thrives in light, well-drained, even poor or sandy soil. It is undemanding, just requiring moderate watering during periods of intense heat. Its heat resistance and low susceptibility to disease make it an easy-care plant.

Lantana Bloomify Orange pairs beautifully with plants in contrasting or complementary tones. For vibrant compositions, combine it with purple petunias, yellow calibrachoas, or red annual verbenas. In flower beds, it pairs perfectly with perennials like sages or light grasses such as Stipa tenuifolia, which add texture and movement to the display. With its compact habit, evolving flowers in warm tones, and uninterrupted flowering, it’s an ideal choice to brighten gardens and terraces all summer long.
