aka Canna

This gorgeous combination of lush bronze foliage topped off with warm orange blooms will really bring summer into your garden. The blooms repeat through to autumn. Easy to grow in a sunny position in soil that does not completely dry out in summer. Perennial.

Cannas are frost tender but as they are dormant in winter they will survive winter cold as long as you put a nice blanket of mulch over the rhizomes in winter.
