I bought some rhizomes from Parks sale this year and did not know where to place them. Finally I put them in a pot on my deck. I did not have any blooms this year, but the plant looked great, and I am still hoping. I think I am going to add mor potted cannas out there next year along with my hibiscuses. Next year I am hoping to come across some canna intrigue and china doll. for contrast

The Lucifer Dwarf Canna was added to my collection in the spring of 2004. I received nice tubers from the Park's Seed company but had no idea the plant itself would be so robust and eyecatching! The flower heads are enormous, long lasting and I have new shoots from each of the original tubers...now that's what I call a bargin!
Even though I have to lift the tubers in my zone (4b) for the winter, this one is well worth the extra effort.
