Product Description

Emanate a rainforest by bringing the Canna Semaphore to your garden this autumn. Large saffron-yellow heads open from an abundance of maroon spikes, from a maroon tube-like stem and surrounded by broad, green-black foliage blushed plum and red. Cannas provide excellent focal points in autumn bedding schemes and are extremely easy to grow. Originating from South East Asia, the Canna prefers moist well-drained soil and full sun, although partial sun is fine. How about planting in a pot next to Bird of Paradise? Or amongst our unusual-looking Designer Hosta Collection? Top quality tubers supplied. Flowers August to October. Height 80cm.

Growing at a glance…

Unpack immediately upon arrival and give them a little water if needed. If potting up into containers, use a balanced compost as it is inclined to produce a hard crust if allowed to dry. Water freely during the growing season and make sure to dead-head regularly to prolong flowering. To plant bulbs, ensure they're planted 7-10cm deep. They are often best started in pots and then transplanted in borders or beds towards the end of May. The best placement for them is to plant them in a sunny position, preferably out of the wind.
