The Canna Lily

Canna Lily

Our featured flower of the month is the Canna Lily.  The beauty of this flower can be overwhelming.   Bulbs flourish into plush foliage with tropical elements with Cannas coming in a multitude of varieties and colors.  They share similar characteristics with gladiolus as their bulbs can be harvested in fall and stowed until next season.  Cannas are easy to grow and belong on the sunny side of your garden. They can thrive in summer heat and are not bothered by insects.  I plant Canna Lily bulbs 4 inches deep and 18 to 24 inches apart for blooms that will amaze from late summer until early fall.  Cheers
