Why Plant Canna Lilies?

Growing Canna Lilies: Although not a true 'lily,' cannas can be grown through a wide range of climates. In northern climates, they'll be annuals but should naturalize in Zone 8 or higher. Canna Lily bulbs should be planted as annuals in a sunny spot in the ground or in large containers. Water often, as Canna Lilies enjoy moist ground, though constant wetness isn’t necessary. Lift the bulbs before frost and store in a cool, dry place for re-planting the following spring.
