Canna Cannova DuoIndian Shot Plant

Years in development, the Cannova Series sets itself apart from most other cannas on the market. While its tropical flair might suggest otherwise, these plants are quick to flower and thrive reliably outdoors in the UK and across Europe. With their striking foliage and vibrant blooms in shades of bronze and scarlet, Canna 'Cannova Duo' is perfect for both container planting and garden borders. Their bold presence and rich, exotic hues make them stand out in beds or patio pots, adding a touch of drama to any landscape. Height: 75cm (30in) Spread: 30cm (12in) The Cannova Duo includes two beautiful varieties: Canna 'Cannova Bronze Orange': Featuring bronzed orange flowers that create a stunning contrast against dark green leaves. Canna 'Cannova Scarlet': With its fiery red blooms, this variety brings a burst of colour to beds and containers. Culinary note: While often overlooked, Canna lily rhizomes are edible and can be eaten raw, offering a flavour similar to water chestnuts (though sometimes with a hint of bitterness). They can also be boiled or baked, making for a starchy, potato-like texture and taste. 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, scarlet 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.
