A 10-inch potted Canna Lily, a bold tropical perennial known for its vibrant flowers and dramatic foliage. Cannas are sun-loving plants that produce eye-catching blooms in summer and fall, typically reaching 3 to 8 feet tall depending on variety. These low-maintenance plants feature large, lush leaves and exotic flowers in shades of red, orange, yellow, pink, or white.

Cannas thrive in full sun with at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. They prefer rich, moisture-retentive soil and consistent watering throughout the growing season. As heavy feeders, they benefit from balanced slow-release fertilizer at planting and liquid feed every 4 weeks during active growth. Plant rhizomes 4 inches deep with growing tips facing up. Deadhead spent flower spikes to encourage continuous blooming.

Hardy in zones 7-11, cannas can remain in the ground year-round in warm climates. In colder regions, dig up rhizomes before the first frost and store above freezing in dry peat moss for winter. These versatile plants attract hummingbirds and butterflies, pair well with ornamental grasses and fine-textured perennials, and tolerate coastal environments. Perfect for back borders, container gardens, or rain gardens.
