Canna are suitable for a container or for growing directly in the ground. Feed well for optimum growth during the growing season. Canna prefer a well drained soil. If you want to overwinter in the ground - mulch heavily in autumn to protect from winter frost or place an upturned pot over the crown, alternatively, lift the rhizome and store dry and frost free. Canna grow well and have the best colour in full sun and sheltered from strong winds.
