Love the tropical splendor of Canna but don't have the space? Tropicalâ„?Rose is the answer! It's got the same huge 3- to 4-inch blooms you expect of the giant varieties, but the lush plant grows only 2½ feet tall! And it blooms in just 90 days from seed!
Quick, economical, and so beautiful, this Canna is great for containers as well as garden beds and borders. The flowers are a lovely shade of pinkish-rose with apricot overtones, very abundant and long-lasting. In subtropical climates (zones 10 and 11), they will even continue into winter!
Long-lived and easy, this Canna asks only for plenty of sunshine, heat, and moisture. Wet and boggy conditions are no problem for this plant, so it's a welcome addition to those garden trouble spots we all have -- the areas that never seem to quite dry out!
For dense coverage, space the plants 18 inches apart. Zones 7-11. Packet is 5 seeds.
