Notes

'Toucan Rose' canna (Canna hybrida 'Toucan Rose') is a perennial for borders, containers, accents, and privacy screens. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet soil of most types. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Its blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.

Pairs well with Montbretia, Red-hot poker, Coneflower, and Lemongrass.
