Use and Care Manual

As ﬂamboyant as their tropical American ancestry, cannas are

among the most colorful summer bulbs with rufﬂed spikes

tapering to reﬁned buds, boasting immense, paddle shaped

leaves. Their great reedy canes and palmy foliage make for

large, magniﬁcent plants, yielding blooms all summer long

for long lasting curb appeal. They are deer resistant and

appear most dramatic when grouped in masses.
