The flowers of the Canna 'Panache' are a delicate blend of pale apricot-pink with a pink throat with hints of cream. Creates a lively, eye-catching display from midsummer to frost.
This beautiful perennial produces upright stems, bearing narrow purple-green leaves. Stands at almost 100cm tall, Canna 'Panache' flowers from July to late October. These tender perennials are also spectacular specimens for containers, so they can be moved easily into a sheltered location for the winter.
Start rhizomes off in a greenhouse or conservatory in spring, planting outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.
Lay the root horizontally, 5cm deep in a large pot filled with potting compost and keep the soil damp.
In late May or early June, choose a sunny location with well-drained, rich soil. Plant Cannas 10cm deep and 30-45cm apart.
From July to October, robust stems of exotic, vibrant blooms reach heights of 50-125cm depending on variety.
Shorter cultivars are suitable for pots.
Lift rhizomes in autumn or bring pots undercover for the winter months as tender Cannas do not tolerate freezing temperatures.
