Description
(30-48” tall x 18” wide) Cannova® Yellow Canna Lily is just the flashy flourish you need to take your garden to the next level without having to accommodate the height of many standard cannas. With spectacular yellow blooms that rise above lush blue-green foliage, it’s sure to light up your garden with style and tropical panache. Use Cannova® Yellow Canna Lily to help you create a tropical theme in your garden or for special ‘thriller’ accents in your containers. Heat and humidity don’t faze that vigorous growth, but it has also been bred to cope with cooler temperatures in northern gardens. Plant Cannova® Yellow Canna Lily in rich, moisture-retentive soil in a full sun or lightly shaded spot. Hummingbirds will enjoy those beautiful blooms and you’ll enjoy color in your garden for months and months. Consider contrasting with grasses such as Fountain Grasses (Pennisetum) or Maiden Hair Grasses (Miscanthus). Rhizomes can be overwintered in a dark, frost-free basement for gardens in zones 3-6.
