White flies from cotton plants are eating my lantana?

by Cheryl

Last spring I planted colorful lantana outside my back wall. Usually pest resistant in other areas I lived in, but I now live near cotton fields.

And the bugs destroyed them. I used soapy water, just water, and neem oil. But they were so infested I was making absolutely no head way.....Is there something to prevent this from happening again, or are there other colorful ground cover that the bugs don't like?
