Lantana involucrata, commonly known as buttonsage, is a species of flowering plant in the verbena family. It is native to the Neotropical realm, where it is widespread in well-drained areas.[2]
Etymology
[edit]The name Lantana derives from the Latin name of the wayfaring tree Viburnum lantana, the flowers of which superficially resemble Lantana.[3]
