I bought this Texas Lantana and put it the northwest corner of the back yard on August 23, 2013. It has grown very slowly, and I am surprised that it's still alive and minimally flowering in 2017.
Here is a photo I took shortly after I planted it.

Probably because of the transplant shock, it had lost most of its leaves by September 12. I had removed most of the star jasmine around the plant. 
However, the Lantana rebounded. Here are flowers beginning to bloom on April 15, 2014.

On February 1, 2015, the lantana had its first leaves of the year.
