Growing Zones
With bold color blocking and incredible patterns, the Cleopatra Canna Lily (Canna indica 'Cleopatra') will amaze you with Piet Mondrian-style abstract painted leaves and flowers! The incredible petals of each flower are either bright red, or bold yellow, while others are streaked with both, while other blooms are all red or all yellow, varying from stem to stem, and flower to flower! The yellow portions can even be freckled in red spots!
But that's not all! The bold patterns extend to the foliage of the Cleopatra Canna, creating swaths and streaks of burgundy, near-black chocolate across the dark green leaves! The huge upright foliage is as exotic as the flowers and can reach a fast 28-32 inches in height while only spreading about 12 inches wide.
Canna Lilies are fantastic summer-blooming exotic perennials with rhizomes that thrive all year in frost-free growing zones of 9 and up. But all growing zones can enjoy these plants as seasonal summer accents, or dig up and store the bulbs as one would Dahlia and Caladiums for the winter!
Planting and Application:
These bold beauties are must-haves for front-yard living decor in your beds, borders, and even container gardens. Add these painted blooms to your sun garden, including Canna in your landscape beds and borders bringing tropical flair and color to any setting!
Any mixed perennial border, or poolside planting, and get dramatic color uplifts while your home's foundation plantings get season-long greenery as facer plants and colorful focal points. Cleopatra Canna Lily is a gorgeous specimen in front of evergreen hedges, front entry plantings, and urns!
Your home will be set apart by Cleopatra's burst of showy color and exotic presence each summer! Heads will turn and traffic will slow down with these incredible plants used in a front berm, or as an exotic screening hedge and backdrop!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Keep these full-sun plants in moderately moist to almost wet enriched soil, that is always well-drained so they do not rot. It is also a good idea to ensure that Canna has a 3-4-inch layer of arborist mulch over the surface, especially in drier, hotter areas. Provide regular fertilizer and deadhead when blooming is done. Canna are spring-planted summer-flowering rhizomes, and are not frost-hardy, so they do need to be dug in the fall before they freeze. Keep them in a cool, dark, frost-free area in a bag in a garage or shed.
