Lantana camara Restrictions in New Zealand

Lantana camara is classified as an unwanted organism in New Zealand under the Biosecurity Act 1993. This means it cannot be sold, propagated, or distributed. The plant is highly invasive, spreading aggressively in warm climates, displacing native vegetation, and creating dense thickets that reduce biodiversity. Its berries are also toxic to livestock and some pets, making it a serious environmental and agricultural threat. For these reasons, strict controls are in place to prevent its introduction and spread.
