Pretty flower on a prickly bush. Since it's a volunteer, I suppose it is considered invasive. But, since it's the only volunteer I've seen on my property in 15 years, I'll try to resist becoming hysterical about it. My main complaint about lantana has nothing to do with invasiveness, however. It's that they become woody, weedy shrubs in a couple of years--losing whatever attractiveness they may have had when young.
