Canna lily, sometimes simply called canna, is a plant that seduces with its tropical beauty. The Apricot Dream variety is a spectacular representative of its species. Its flowers take on a unique, rare colour. Its silky petals are covered with warm apricot colour with a hint of pink. A hued red spot spreads in the middle of the flower. It contrasts with the colour of the petals. Large flowers are gathered in clusters consisting of about five at the top of tubular, about 1 metre tall stalks. Broad ornamental leaves add a noble touch to the plant. The Apricot Dream is a phenomenal variety that you can grow in home gardens, public urban greeneries, and in planters. It perfectly fits larger groups of other plants, to which it provides a magnificent background. Presented canna and its unusual flower colour proves to be a great standalone decoration of a lawn or pond. The stunning flowers appear on plants from June to September, sometimes even longer if the weather permits.
The enchanting canna is a plant sensitive to cold and therefore you should wait with planting it outside until mid-May. Forcing plants in planters at home to transplant them later is a common practice. We advise to plant canna on a sunny situation that is warm and sheltered from wind. You will achieve good results when you provide canna lily with a soil that is rich in humus, fertile, and well cultivated. Do not forget to put a layer of drainage in planters where you grow canna. The maintenance of this species is easy. Plants require regular watering and fertilization. We recommend removing wilted flowers to prevent plants from producing seeds.
You should dig out canna rhizomes in autumn and store them over the winter at a spot that is secured from frost. The growing cycle is repeated in the next season.
One package contains 1 rhizome of the Apricot Dream canna lily of premium quality. Basic plant facts and growing instructions can be found on the package label.
