Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Canna thrive in full sun and can tolerate a touch of afternoon shade in the hottest of their growing zones. However, part sun will result in fewer blooms. Be sure to provide very good drainage whether in pots or in the ground since these rhizomes can rot in soggy soil. Cold growing zones can dig the rhizomes after the first frost. Store in a cool, dry place; and replant them once spring temperatures rise.
- Regular Fertilizer
- Full Sun & Partial Afternoon Shade
- Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Consistent Moderate Moisture
- Low-Maintenance
