Canna Lily

Showy, economical, and easy to split and share.

Type: Perennial

Sun / water: Full sun / water as needed

When I plant it: Late winter through fall. Separate tubers for transplanting or sharing in late winter or early spring, before blooming.

What I’ve seen

A large variety of colors and variegation. Split them frequently, or the center “hollows” out. Provides showy blooms through spring, summer and fall.

How I use it

Great for landscaping and splitting. One plant can offer several over the years, so they are economical and easy to split.
