Canna 'Cannova Yellow' (Cannova Series)
Canna 'Cannova Yellow'
Canna generalis is a hybrid which can be grown in a border or in containers. Cannas are easy to grow from rhizomes, but you can also buy plants over the summer from most garden centres. They are tender plants, but in warmer regions, you can leave the rhizomes in the ground with a covering of mulch over the winter months.

Propagate by division when lifting and replant when ready in spring
Planting in Spring
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
In early Spring fill largish pots with compost to start them off, cover them with the compost but if there are any shoots leave them exposed. Water sparingly and leave in a warmish place. Harden them off by placing them in a greenhouse in mid spring before planting out after the risk of frost has passed. .
