Use and Care Manual

Van Zyverden Cannas

Chocolate Sunrise

Exotic tropical foliage and color

Good in garden beds or larger containers

Easy to grow and low maintenance

As flamboyant as their tropical American ancestor, cannas are among the most colorful summer bulbs,

with ruffled spikes tapering to refined buds, boasting immense, paddle shaped leaves. Their great reedy

canes and palmy foliage make for large, magnificent plants even if they never bloom. However, they

yield blooms all summer long for long lasting curb appeal and appear most dramatic when grouped

in numbers. They are deer resistant and are fast growers with large

flowers.

About This Variety: Chocolate Canna is a relatively new cultivar. What makes it so special is its chocolate, purplish-colored foliage, contrasting to its bright, orange-yellow flowers. Truly one of its kind and deer resistant. Limited in supply! Growing Instructions: Where not hardy plant outdoors in early summer, couple inches deep setting the rhizome in the hole, ‘eyes’ (shoots) up. Cannas do best with a good supply of water. Care Tip: As flowers fade, deadhead to promote continued flowering.
