Support small businesses :) Cannas are tropical summer plants that thrive in the heat of July and August. Sometimes called “canna lilies,” these perennials are unrelated to true lilies. The flowers are somewhat similar to an iris in shape, blooming in red, orange, yellow, and pink. Canna leaves are often heavily veined, adding even more beauty, especially when backlit by the sun. The foliage color can also vary, ranging from green to maroon to bronze, and in solid or variegated patterns. Most varieties grow between 3 to 5 feet tall, though there are taller types as well as dwarf types for containers.
