Plant Features

Canna Lily generalis 'Cleopatra' stands out as one of the most captivating cannas with its vibrant bright red and yellow flowers. Not to be outshone, its foliage offers a striking contrast in rich shades of green and near-black. What's truly unique is the element of surprise it brings: both blooms and foliage can sporadically exhibit red markings, making each plant distinctively different. Truly, no two Cleopatra Cannas are ever alike.

Plant Care: Plant bulbs after the last expected frost. For in-ground plants, water every two days; container plants need daily watering. Prune spent flower stalks to their attachment point and trim non-flowering stalks to soil level. In freezing areas, after the first frost, cut stalks to the ground and store the roots for winter.

Canna Lily Companion Plants: Begonia, Calibrachoa, Coleus, Dahlias, Geraniums, Lobelia, Petunias, Sweet Alyssum, Torenia, Verbena, Zinnias
