Description
(30-48” tall x 18” wide) Cannova® Red Shades Canna Lily is the canna for you, if you’re looking for a canna that will respond to cooler summer temperatures and lower light conditions. It is equally at home in a full sun situation during a hot and humid summer. Red Shades has a classic tropical feel with peachy-red blooms held above vigorous green leaves. Cannas are vigorous growers and will quickly give your border or container that instant lived-in look. What’s more, they’ll continue to provide strong foliage and flower accents until your first frost, and attract hummingbirds all season long. A moisture-lover, ‘Red Shades’ is a great choice for shallow water gardens and edge-of-pond environments and prefers a rich soil. In fall (in zones 3-6) dig the shallowly rooted tubers and store in a dark, frost-free space for even more blooms next year. Full sun or light shade.
