When planting, do not bury the rhizome too deep, but do not leave it on the surface of the earth.

Where is the best place to plant cannes

The soil for planting cannes is fertile, rich in humus, with constant moisture. It is used for planting in the coastal zone of ponds, with immersion in water up to 10-20 cm.

Cannes are planted in the ground in spring only after the end of spring return frosts.

Is it possible to grow cannes at home in a pot

Since canna grows in a pot, this makes it possible to extend its vegetation and flowering period compared to cannas growing in open ground and falling under frost. With early germination of rhizomes (subject to favorable growth conditions), cannes can bloom from June to October.

How to fertilize cannes at home

During the budding period, use a complex mineral fertilizer containing nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus in a balanced amount.

For top dressing to be effective, thoroughly moisten the soil after application. Do not feed the plant during flowering.
