This is one Canna I grow for the foliage as well as the flowers. It is hardy in zones 7-11 prefers full sun to partial shade. It will also do well in a large pot, and will grow up to 4' in the container, and 6' in the garden.
I love the shades of the multi-hued leaves, and it will be crowned with brilliant tangerine orange flowers. This year due to our cooler than usual summer, the plant is slow in showing it's lovely blooms.

beautiful foliage... and interesting how the colour ends with green at the lower leaf.
This is my first year growing Canna. Your right. They are worth it just for the foliage.
Wow! Those are some brilliant colors! I'm so jealous that I don't have a big garden!
I love cannas but so do the snails in my garden
I also grow and love this canna, especially for the foliage. It pairs nicely with some of my darker colored foliage.
