Description for Canna x generalis 'Cannova Yellow' not available
Bring the tropics to your own back garden with this exotic half-hardy perennial. Broad, lush foliage is delicately striped in bright green and gold making an exotic display. Throughout the summer, tall stems rise above the leaves, topped with showy orange blooms.
Easier to grow than you may think, cannas are one of those exotic beauties that swiftly helps to create a bright, zingy summer garden. Their fiery hot colour combinations of yellow, orange and red will erupt throughout your beds and borders, adding great height and impact too. Each pack of 5 is a mix of colours, and also a mix of the green-leaves and lovely purple-leaved types, selected from taller flowering cultivars, so all will flower at 1m or more. Renowned for their tall flower spikes, grow them in large pots, or at the back of borders, in hot, sunny spots, in well-drained areas. Feed well when in growth - they will not start growing much until May, they grow away quickly as the summer warms. They will over-winter if they do not get too wet, and will benefit from a mulch - or the tubers can be dug up and stored in a cool, frost-free place over the winter for use again next year.
Add an exotic centrepiece to your border or patio with this stunning canna ?Ambassador?, whose striking red blooms are offset by large, tropical-looking bronze leaves.
