Canna pretoria, commonly known as Canna Lily Pretoria, is a vibrant and showy perennial with a striking habit that makes it an excellent choice for adding bold color to gardens. It is well-suited for USDA hardiness zones 8 to 11, thriving in warm temperatures and full sun exposure. Featuring large, variegated leaves with green and yellow stripes, its highlight is its bright orange flowers that bloom in summer. Typically reaching a height of 4 to 6 feet, this plant adds a tropical flair to any landscape. Although not noted for deer resistance, its rapid growth and stunning appearance more than makeup for this. Canna pretoria is perfect for borders or as a focal point in garden beds, providing visual interest and dynamic beauty.
