Canna Pretoria
This Canna 'Pretoria', supplied on a rhizome, is a true tropical sight with its striking, brightly colored yellow striped leaves and brilliant orange flowers with a hint of red. It blooms from July to September and prefers a warm, sunny spot where it can truly shine. Originally from the tropics, this plant loves warmth and feels perfectly at home in a sunny garden or on a sheltered patio.
The bright green leaves with golden yellow stripes make Canna 'Pretoria' a vibrant focal point in any garden, while the fiery flowers stand out like flaming accents. This Canna is a real eye-catcher, perfect for adding an exotic touch to your border or pot. It also combines beautifully with dark-leaved varieties like Canna 'Black Knight' for a powerful and colorful contrast.
As soon as the first frost is in sight, lift the rhizomes from the ground and store them frost-free and dry. After the frost, you can replant it and enjoy its spectacular comeback. Once a beloved fashion flower in England of old, this Pretoria remains an exotic favorite today, adding flair, color, and summer elegance to any garden.
