Description / Tropicanna® Canna Lily Bulb

Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit

The huge new leaves unfurl purple on this delightful canna, quickly acquiring pinstripes of orange, gold, and crimson among the green. By far the most eye-catching foliage in the family, there are few garden sights as impressive as these leaves when the sunlight shines through them.

Set about with orange blooms like giant flares, Tropicanna® Canna Lily is a spectacular accent for patio and poolside. A favorite of modern garden designers, this popular splash of color is the cultivar that put cannas back on the map.

This tropical just thrives in the heat, so expect it to be the star of the garden when less tolerant plants have slumped from exhaustion. Tropicanna® is stunning enough that just one plant makes a lovely thriller in mixed containers or beds, but the stately flower stalks also work beautifully in rows: use them liberally along exposed paths and walkways to fill your yard with color.

Plant Tropicanna® Canna Lily in full sun in a soil rich with plenty of organic material, and water it frequently. It will reward you with exceptional vigor and the most stunning foliage you will ever see. This canna will naturalize to fill the area, and every few years should be divided, providing you more bulbs to spread across the garden. Deadheading is recommended, and it will help the blazing orange blooms come on faster.

    My neighbors gave so many compliments last summer. A true beauty, hoping that I wintered my rhizome correctly.

    Your Cannas looked absolutely stunning—thank you so much for sharing the photos! We can see why the compliments were rolling in. Fingers crossed your rhizomes come back just as beautifully this year!

    They are rotten...frozen somehow but it kills the bulb 9 people found this helpful

    Rating

    received these in the mail, they arrived soft not firm - and so excited to plant them as i had them 10 yrs ago! planted them anyway because it was spring...nothing grew and i was very disappointed. Save your $10. and buy seeds instead. I don't think Park seed can do bulbs yet. Park seed should just give these away to ppl who bought seeds since they are old a squishy.

    Response from store

    Sorry to hear your bulbs didn’t arrive as expected or grow as hoped. That’s not the experience we want for our customers.
    We’ve emailed you to discuss next steps and make this right.

    I recently got my order for this canna bulb. The thing arrived the most dried up shriveled bulb I have ever rec'd. from anyone. T ones I got from Hoen Canna Farm in Oklahoma were less expensive and it was a HUGE chunk of root with severeal large fat eyes. Needless to say I will never order anything from these people again.

    Mostly a dud 6 people found this helpful

    Received two bulbs; one didn't amount to anything. Dead on arrival, no leaves, no growth after a few months. The second bulb has been planted for several months as per the information provided. A few leaves but no blossoms. Sadly, much ado about nothing. Too bad. Was charged on April 14 of this year.

I stuck it in the ground anyway tho I don’t see it ever producing leaves… disappointing that I paid so much for these rhizomes and they are not top quality..

    No telling what you’ll get 6 people found this helpful

    Rating

    I bought two of these bulbs and planted one each in two huge pots with new organic rich soil. Placed them 5 feet apart from each other in a sunny location and watered every few days last spring. Got absolutely nothing from one pot while the other finally came up early summer. However, that one never bloomed and only got 12 inches high at best. Yes, the leaves were colorful but it was a very small plant and a very large pot. Hoping for better luck this year with that one bulb. It’ll be April in a few days and I see nothing as yet.

    I ordered a Canna bulb. It came sealed in an airtight plastic bag. We planted it, we’ve waited 2 weeks, and nothing has come up. When I took the bulb out of the bag, I had a hunch that it was dead. That was my first, and last, time I will order from Park Sead.

    Rating

    Last spring I purchased a root of the Tropicanna canna which did not grow. I have planted cannas for years and have never had a rhizome that did not come up to bloom. I called the company and was told cannas are not be grown up here in Central MIchigan. In the late fall, I always dig the canna roots to save and plant the next spring. It seemed the root had been treated with something to keep it in dormancy. What a disappointment.

    Bulb looked suspicious on purchase, no signs roots or growinh points looked damaged. I potted indoors and took out after all danger of frost long past. Should be able to grown zone 5 if caution used. Bulb never showed any sign of life. Company doesn't care. Experienced gardener.
