Notes
'Toucan Dark Orange' canna (Canna hybrida 'Toucan Dark Orange') is an annual for borders, containers, accents, and rain gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet soil of most types. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees visit the flowers, which open in early to late summer.
Pairs well with Montbretia, Red-hot poker, and Coneflower.
