    While rooting hormone certainly doesn't hurt, it's not always necessary to root plants. Many plant cuttings, such as lantanas, can be successfully rooted without the use of rooting hormones. This is generally a preference thing. If it works best for you, then go for it.

    Lantana do require warm temperatures, so they may be slow to get started in the spring. You could give it a light fertilizer and just have a little patience! Good luck.

    Lantana can not tolerate any frost. Did your temperatures dip this past Winter?
    If your not seeing any sign of life, I suspect your plant may have perished.
    I would continue to water and watch, I always give plants a chance!

    Lantana is considered a tender perennial. It will not tolerate any frost. With the below normal temperatures across nearly the entire United States this past winter, it's most likely your plant did not survive.
    I always give plants a chance though, so continue to care for it and look for signs of life.

    Lantana is considered to be a tender perennial. It is sold as an annual in Northern climates and can be considered a perennial in warmer zones.
    It can not tolerate any frost and with the cold that much of the United States experienced this past winter we are hearing of many gardeners losing their Lantana plants.

    Lantana is considered a tender perennial meaning it typically doesn't overwinter well in the garden because it's too cold and won't tolerate frost. So, there is a possibility your lantana didn't survive. However, that isn't to say impossible - a harsh winter coupled with a cold spring isn't a great recipe for early spring growth. I would give it some more time.
