Canna Cannova Bronze Scarlet 180MM

Canna x generalis Cannova Bronze Scarlet

I am Canna Cannova Bronze Scarlet. My family originated from Central America.

Habit Shrub - Big Bright Blooms
Plant family Cannaceae
With my dramatic and stunning bronze foliage, I make a statement wherever I am planted. My large scarlet blooms stand proud of my leaves in stunning contrast from late spring through to autumn. Adaptable I am just as happy growing in a large pot or other container as I am planted out in the garden. The lushness of my foliage and brightness of my flowers are a great way to impart a tropical feel to the garden or patio etc. when container grown. I am happy in most soils and a good choice for areas that are poorly drained and can be wet and waterlogged.
