The Yellow-Red canna lily is a plant that should not disappoint gardeners in terms of beauty and the length of flowering period. The noble, yet a bit exotic canna lily can grow in a garden and in large pots and planters. Sumptuous, branchy tufts of yellow-red, impressive flowers look great as a floral decoration of squares, yards, and entrance areas. They look great under building windows and at walls of wooden garden cabins. Bright accents that canna lily can offer will rejuvenate every space.

Cultivation requirements of a canna lily are not hard to meet. This plant likes to bask in sunlight, at a place where its large leaves will not be torn by the wind. It prefers soils that are rich in humus and nutrients. It needs plenty of the latter due to its vigour. Canna lily needs plenty of water and must be regularly fertilized in summer. To extend the flowering time, remove faded flowers so that they do not produce seeds.

Beautiful canna lilies come from a warm climate, so even the tiniest frost can hurt them. If you wish to grow them for several years, dig out the rhizomes before the winter and store them in a room where temperature remains over the freezing point. Place the carefully cleaned and dried canna rhizomes in containers and protect against moisture loss with sand or peat.

Each package contains one rhizome of the Yellow Red canna lily. Basic plant information and growing tips can be found on the label.
