Yellow King Humbert Canna Lily is adorned with brilliant yellow blossoms generously splashed with red-orange accents. The flamboyant blossoms stand on tall stems above lush, bright green tropical foliage. Flowering mid-summer through frost, these exotic blooms offer vivid color when many other plants fade and attract hummingbirds and butterflies to the garden. Perfect for containers, flower beds, or borders. (Canna xgeneralis)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
(48-60" tall x 12-24” wide) ‘Yellow King Humbert’ Canna Lily has been a garden favorite for over 100 years. The sunny bicolor blooms dazzle during the heat of summer when many other plants slow down. Deadhead spent blooms to keep plants blooming all summer long. Bold, apple-green foliage stands upright, adding a striking architectural accent to patio pots and garden plantings. Cannas are striking when planted in masses but work equally well as accents. Give plants plenty of sunshine and a rich, moist soil that drains easily. Plants are winter hardy in zones 7-10 where they can be grown as perennials. In colder regions, move containers indoors, or dig Canna bulbs before the first frost, and store indoors for winter. Cannas are easy to grow and deer resistant.
