Know before you buy
Yes, its compact habit makes it an excellent choice for containers. Ensure your pot has adequate drainage and is large enough to accommodate the rhizomes as they grow.
Cannas are not frost-hardy. In cooler climates, you should dig up the rhizomes after the first frost, clean off the soil, and store them in a cool, dry place indoors until you are ready to replant them in the spring.
For the best bloom production, place your Canna Lilies in a spot that receives full sun. They can tolerate partial shade, but you may see fewer flowers and slightly less vibrant foliage color.
These are fast-growing plants that typically reach their full height of 4 feet within a single growing season. You can expect to see significant vertical impact shortly after they establish in the spring.
While they are repeat bloomers, removing spent flower stalks can help the plant focus its energy on producing new blooms and maintaining its lush foliage throughout the season.
Yes, the vibrant, nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to both butterflies and hummingbirds, making them a great addition to a pollinator-friendly garden.
