The attached plant pictures show the unique features of the Lantana sp. Whole plant does not have any prickles and the young branches are sticky.

It is widely grown in different areas of Papum Pare of Arunachal Pradesh.

" In the Pacific Islands the most common variety is the prickly L. camara var. aculeata (Thaman, 1974). " 
Quotes statement is taken from https://www.cabi.org/isc/datasheet/29771 . 
That means , non prickly variety should be L. camara var. camara . 
I must admit , I could not find a description for var. camara in one and half hour on net .
Flora of Pakistan gives some 6-7 varieties , no description , no var. camara . 
In fact in a 1996 article on JSTOR , a drawing showed  L. camara var. camara with prickles .
