Description
Cannova® Bronze Orange Canna (Canna x generalis 'Bronze Orange') delivers the knockout color punch of tropical cannas in a compact, manageable size. This Ball Seed selection combines luminous orange blooms with deep bronze foliage that creates an eye-catching contrast from the moment it emerges in spring. The flowers keep coming from late spring through the first frost, making this one of the longest-blooming perennials you can grow in warm climates or one of the most spectacular annuals for northern gardens.
Landscape Impact
The bronze-toned leaves unfurl with dramatic presence, their rich chocolate hues providing the perfect backdrop for the succession of bright orange flowers held on upright stalks. Unlike older canna varieties that can reach 6 feet or more, Cannova® Bronze Orange stays in the 3-4 ft range, making it perfect for mid-border placements, container gardens, and smaller spaces where you want bold color without overwhelming scale.
Plant it near pools or water features where the tropical vibe feels most natural, or use it as a thriller in large container combinations. The compact habit means you won't need to stake plants even in windy locations. Mass plantings create stunning drifts of color, while single specimens make dramatic focal points.
Wildlife Value
Hummingbirds zero in on the tubular orange flowers, visiting repeatedly throughout the day during their summer feeding frenzy. Butterflies appreciate the nectar as well, though the real show belongs to the hummers. The continuous bloom production means your garden becomes a reliable feeding station for these jewel-like visitors all season long.
Growing Tips
In zones 7-8, treat Cannova® Bronze Orange as a perennial with winter protection. Mulch heavily after the first frost and leave rhizomes in the ground. They'll resprout when soil warms in spring, though they may emerge later than you expect. In zones 9-11, cannas behave as true perennials that may even stay semi-evergreen through mild winters.
For colder zones, either grow cannas as annuals or dig the rhizomes after frost, let them dry for a few days, and store them in barely-moist peat moss in a cool (45-55°F) location until spring. Many gardeners find that the long season of bloom makes cannas worth growing as annuals even if you never dig and store them.
Cannas thrive on heat, humidity, and moisture. The more you give them, the more they'll reward you with lush growth and nonstop flowering. They're essentially maintenance-free once established, requiring only regular water, occasional feeding, and removal of spent blooms to look their best month after month.
