Pretoria Variegated Canna Lily

Origin

India, Africa

Description

Cannas are vibrant tender perennials that produce bold leaves and showy flowers in shades of red, orange, yellows and pinks. The tall or dwarf foliage displays spirally arranged leaves that may be green or bronze. 

The flowers are somewhat similar to an iris in shape. Their huge leaves wrap in ruffles around stems, tapering to refined buds that open into large, rainbow-hued flowers all summer long even in intense heat. Sometimes spotted variations of the scarlet, red-orange, or yellow flowers occur.

Canna 'Bengal Tiger' is considered by many to be the most beautiful of canna lilies. The dramatic stalks of green- and yellow-striped variegated leaves with a brilliant maroon edge grow to 6' and are topped in summer with bright orange flowers that are favored by hummingbirds.

Canna Bengal Tiger displays bold green and yellow striped leaves complemented by vibrant orange flowers. Its blooming period extends from June to October in plains and July to November in hilly areas. For a tropical summer effect, plant rhizomes between February and April or March and May.


Environment

Cannas need full sun for good flowering and consistently moist soil with a pH of around 6.0-6.5. Add lime before planting if your garden soil is acidic (low pH). Position plants away from strong wind; their large, soft leaves are vulnerable to damage.

Cannas can not tolerate cold temperatures. Soil must be 60ºF or warmer before planting rhizomes. Dig a hole 2 inches deep and set the rhizome 1 to 2 inches below the soil with the “eyes” (bumps or nodes, which are growth sprouts) pointed up. Space rhizomes 1-1/2 to 2 feet apart to give cannas enough room. Containers need to be at least 18 inches in diameter (per rhizome). Before planting, loosen the soil to a depth of 1 foot, then mix in 2 to 4 inches of compost.

Water thoroughly, then withhold water for as long as 3 weeks, and watch for signs of growth. Cannas are slow to sprout. Once sprouted, water at least once a week by slowly soaking the area around the roots.

Full foliage color develops when days are warmer (59ºF or more). Blooms should appear in 10 to 12 weeks. 

Use slow-release fertilizer at planting and twice during the growing season. Fish emulsion fertilizer, which is a little higher in nitrogen, is a beneficial organic alternative. Higher nitrogen fertilizers tend to increase canna height. 

Landscape Use

Cannas can be both focal points and stylish accents. Use them to bring structure as a tall border or to add depth to narrow spaces. They add a colorful splash to garden orders and poolside plantings. Mix cannas with grasses, lantana, zinnias, snapdragons, elephant ears, salvia, periwinkles, and more.

    Quick and Fantastic Service!
    I include the additional protection for all of my high dollar purchases. This was the first time I have ever had to use it. I had an extension to provide additional screens to my laptop. Unfortunately, it developed an issue. Submitting a claim was easy and straightforward. UPS came the next day to pick it up and I was notified in just a couple of days that it was received. Only a couple of days after that, I received an email stating that my laptop screens were not repairable and I was given an Amazon card for the entire purchase price. I could not have been more pleased, as the purchase price was $599 and was a huge splurge for me in the first place. I was able to quickly replace the screens and back in business in no time. I would recommend this protection plan for any high dollar purchase.

    They paid on the policy
    I bought a four year replacement policy on my modem and two years into its lifespan it stopped working. I trouble shot with the company but we eventually determined it was dead. I contacted Asurion, they sent me a pre-paid address label, I mailed the defective modem, they found that it was dead and deposited a credit in the amount of the original purchase in my Amazon account, all within a few days. I am quite happy with the service. Just so you know, the reimbursement is through a gift card at Amazon which you can draw down against your purchases; it is not CASH.

    Nearly 3 years later, Asurion had my back :)
    In Nov of 2017 I bought a $900 35" Ultra wide PC monitor for Gaming and Work. It was made by a company called AOC/Envision and I bought it through amazon. The monitor had a 3 year warranty that I was still within but they said no to a defect that they said was only covered for 1 year, even though it wasn't the type of defect that was only covered for 1 year. LUCKILY, back in 2017 I had purchased an Asurion insurance policy with this monitor. I told an Asurion agent in a instant messaging chat window on the Asurion website my problem and she sent me postage in an email. I shipped my product and in 5 days from shipping it I received a text telling me that it was beyond repair and I would be getting a FULL REFUND! Not 2hr later, in an email, there it was, an amazon gift card code for $900 I will not be making any big purchases without an Asurion plan going forward. Happy customer Don't buy anything AOC

    Received a refund
    I purchased the 4-year protection plan offered at the time I purchased a refurbished printer. Seven months later the printer failed, so I went searching through my Amazon orders for my protection plan and located it. Once I created an account on Asurion's website it showed the the plan but it was not attached to a specific purchase, so I had to locate and upload the invoice for my printer. Once that was done, the policy still wasn't linked for some unknown reason. I proceeded to start the claim anyway stating that my printer had failed and I received an immediate reply stating that a box would be shipped to me for me to return the printer for inspection/repair. After a week I hadn't seen any additional info so I called their support phone #. The service was very good and they had to create a new case to replace the one I started online, and they assured me that a shipping box would be sent. About a week later I did receive the box with a prepaid shipping label to return the item by UPS. I packaged the printer up and sent it off. I received updates stating that they received it, were looking at it and attempting repairs. Everything appeared to be going along well, then out of the blue they sent me a notification of a full refund in the form of an Amazon gift card. Overall I'm satisfied and I'm glad I purchased the coverage.
