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 for long lasting curb appeal. They are deer resistant
and appear most dramatic when grouped in masses. These
are fast growers with large flowers.
