Canna Stuttgart

Very tall, white variegated narrow leaves and an orange flower

 Best grown in shade/dappled shade as the white parts of the leaf scorch very easily. In deep shade the variegation may fade out but this is rectified by increasing light levels. The scorching is related to low humidity. Scorching is worse in direct sunlight as it is also likely to be in drier air. I know of them planted in marshland in full sun with no scorching! Produces slender Apricot flowers. Height to 8 feet 2.4metres or even more. This was one of our two tallest cannas in 2022.

 Check regularly for any updates. Currently sold as a freshly divided rhizome. Plants to follow but often in and out of availability. This variety produces few, quite often, long rhizomes. Best grown on with heat and light upon receipt.
