Canna

Large, bright blooms attract butterflies and complement bold, vibrant foliage. A tall-growing variety that is lovely at water's edge and a wonderful contrast to fine-textured water plants. Very handsome in container gardens or along walls. In northern climates, lift and store root rhizomes over winter.
