Lantana, anyways...I cut it back in early spring. Usually down to about 2"
above the ground.

Actually, I leave all the dead limbs on it until it starts growing to see
how high up the stalks it will come back that year. In Leander, the last two
years, that's been plumb down to the ground!

answers your question.

LOL. Yes, it does. (I'm trying to figure out if mine is going to
come back or if it needs to be replaced. Ditto for lantana and
plumbago.)

My heather still looks dead, but they have come back every year and now
need thinning and transplanting. It is the same for the lantana, but you
need to cut all the dead branches as it comes back from the roots.
