Will lantana overwinter in Sunset zone 5?

I live on Camano Island, near the water. Ever since seeing the butterfly exhibit at the zoo, I've wanted some lantana in my garden. Last week I found some plants at Home Depot, so of course I decided it was 'fate' and had to get one. But will lantana survive in my garden year round? I plan to mulch it with bark. The label says that, assuming it is not killed by low temps, it will get to be a 4' by 4' bush. Does anyone have experience with lantana locally, and if so, please advise: Do I need to dig it up for winter? How big will it get in our climate?
