Canna Lily Plant | Tropical Flowering Plant for UAE Gardens & Landscapes

Description

Canna or canna lily is a genus of flowering plants consisting of 10 species. It is the only genus in the family Cannaceae. All of the genus’s species are native to the American tropics and were naturalized in Europe, India and Africa in the 1860s. Although they grow native to the tropics, most cultivars have been developed in temperate climates and are easy to grow in most countries of the world, as long as they receive at least 6–8 hours average sunlight during the summer, and are moved to a warm location for the winter. See the Canna cultivar gallery for photographs of Canna cultivars.
