Canna x generalis 'Cannova Yellow'Indian Shot Plant

Bright and striking, the vibrant yellow blooms of the Canna Lily rise above its large, deep green foliage, making a bold statement in any garden. Ideal for adding an exotic touch and a pop of colour to borders or patio containers, this variety has been specially developed over many years to stand out from typical Canna Lilies. Unlike most varieties, it flowers earlier and is more reliable in blooming outdoors across the UK and Europe. With a mature height of around 75cm (30in) and a spread of 40cm (16in), this Canna Lily offers a striking focal point. Culinary Tip: The rhizomes of the Canna Lily are edible, with a flavour reminiscent of water chestnuts, though they can be somewhat bitter. They can be eaten raw or cooked by boiling or baking, offering a texture and taste similar to potatoes. Note: As plant size varies with the season, we list Canna Lilies by pot size rather than specific dimensions. The plant’s height and spread at delivery will depend on the time of year, so images provided are for reference only. Ten years in the making, the Cannova Series distinguishes itself from almost every other Canna on the market. Despite its tropical appearance, plants will be early to flower and will bloom reliably outdoors in the UK and Europe! With its bold leaves and showy flowers in shades of bronze, yellow and red, Cannova is a great choice for both containers and borders this summer. Grow Canna plants in frost free conditions until all risk of frost has passed. In spring, Canna plants can be gradually acclimatised to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before planting them in borders, beds and containers. Grow Cannas in fertile, moist, well drained soil in a sheltered, sunny position.
