FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

When can I grow Canna in the UK?

Start Canna in spring, once the risk of hard frost has passed. It needs warmth to begin growing strongly and performs best in a sunny, sheltered position.

Where is the best place to grow Canna?

Canna grows best in full sun, in rich soil that stays moist throughout summer. Water regularly in dry spells, especially when it is growing in a pot.

Can I grow Canna in pots?

Yes. Canna is excellent for large patio containers. Use a heavy pot with drainage holes and feed regularly while plants are actively growing.

Will Canna survive winter outside?

Cannas are not reliably hardy in cold, wet UK winters. After the foliage is damaged by frost, lift and store them frost-free, or protect very sheltered garden plants with a thick, dry mulch.

Why has my Canna not flowered?

Canna needs warmth, sun and regular watering to flower well. Cold conditions, shade and dry compost can delay growth and reduce blooms.
