Canna, Yellow

If surrounding yourself with bright colors is your thing, if mixing electric colour tops with teal bottoms is your style, the canna is right up your alley. Certainly not for the timid, canna lilies are big and bold, with leaves that fall into the "large" to "huge" range and flowers that unfurl last. You'll find these horticultural Titans as warm-climate foundation plantings, along property lines in lieu of fences, and at the edges of ponds, reflected in the bright waters. Experiment with a few cannas and let your imagination go wild!
