Lantana camara
Lantana camara is a scrambling, thorny, evergreen shrub that can grow up to 2 metres tall and perhaps 2.5 metres wide. Some forms of the plant are able to clamber into other plants for support and thus reach greater heights. The plant is widely used in domestic medicine. It is commonly cultivated as an ornamental in tropical gardens, where it is also grown as a hedge plant.
