Notes

'Tropical Rose' canna (Canna 'Tropical Rose') is a bulb for borders, containers, and accent plantings. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, loamy or clay soil. It bears sugar-pink flowers above green foliage, and hummingbirds visit the blooms. Takii & Co bred it.

Pairs well with Fountain grass, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Meadowsweet, and Ostrich fern.
