We call this flower baho-baho which means stinky. Lantana or shrub verbenas' aromatic flower clusters (called umbels) are a mix of red, orange, yellow, or blue and white florets. The flowers typically change color as they mature, resulting in inflorescences that are two- or three-colored. A common name for Lantana camara is "Ham 'n Eggs" due to the adjacent pink and yellow inflorescences.

A beautiful picture. Lantana is such an interesting flower and I enjoyed reading about it, thank you.
Lantana attracts butterflies too.
They have candy colors! Very pretty. I don't think I've ever seen any...
Beautiful and colorful flower.
Bright and beautiful! Despite being a common weed, the colours of the lantana range from terrain to terrain. I always love to observe the change in the depth of colour.
I LIKE THE SHOT...
NICE DAY

Children make excellent garlands with them.
The lantanas have such pretty flowers that attract butterflies but here in Australia they are noxious weeds in at least two states.
At least one species of Lantana thrives here and you can find it everywhere. The blossoms are lovely.
Lindas e coloridas flores!
I've been seeing a lot of these baho-baho around this year, although of course I had no idea that is what they are called. Pretty!
