Comments: Canna Lily Tropical Sunrise is a showy tropical perennial
with breathtaking pastel shade blooms that
really stands out in the garden. A free bloomer, it is
heat-tolerant and very easy to grow. It only needs 6 hours of sunshine and it multiplies fast. Remove spent flowers to
promote new growth. Hummingbird loves this canna. Canna Lily
Tropical Sunrise is also grown as an aquatic. Submerge
pot in pond.
