Lantana, Golden Spreader Royalty-Free Stock Image

Flower of the Lantana `Camara Flava`. This pretty species is native to Mexico, Central America, the West Indies and northern South America. Unfortunately, in warm countries where it`s been introduced as an ornamental it tends to escape into the wild. In Southamerica reports that teas have been brewed from the leaves, stems and roots to deal with many kinds of internal problems, such as stomach ache, liver ailment, colic and `rheumatism,` but also several female troubles including childbirth issues, and a host of other ailments.
