Cannas are among the most colorful summer bulbs - as
flamboyant as their tropical American ancestry - with ruffled
spikes tapering to refined buds boasting immense, paddle
shaped leaves. Their great reedy canes and palmy foliage
make for large magnificent plants. However, they yield blooms
all summer long for long lasting curb appeal and are most
dramatic when grouped.
