This Mike Dirr introduction popped up as a spontaneous seedling in the Dirr's temporary residence in Chapel Hill, NC...obviously a cross of Lantana 'New Gold' (Lantana camara x Lantana montevidensis) and Lantana camara 'Miss Huff'. Lantana 'Chapel Hill Yellow' has been an amazing plant in our trials, sailing through our 7 degree F winter in 2009. Be sure to allow enough room, as our 1.5-year-old clump is now 2' (0.33 Dirrs) tall x 14' (2.3 Dirrs) wide. For us, the clump is topped with clusters of bright yellow flowers from early June until frost...a deer-resistant, hummingbird-inviting, flowering machine.
