Can’t get enough Cannas this season!
The rage for tropicals in the landscape continues, further heightened by PHS featuring plants from Hawaii at the Flower Show this year. There’s no easier tropical to grow than cannas. The leaves alone offer valuable structure and color in the garden: nice and big, intense color rising 3-4 feet and staying healthy looking all summer. Then, the lascivious blooms starting in midsummer, towering for weeks above the leaves. Ooo Ooo. In your flower bed or as a thriller in a big container, you need to plant cannas this year, Plus remember, you can just lift them up in the fall and store them for another year of color, so you’re really investing in a perennial when you you bring one (or more, please) home.
