Considered semi-tropical, Canna Toucan Scarlet is both heat and humidity tolerant. Plant one in a container to steal the show as a Thriller and in the landscape to attract hummingbirds.
Toucan® Scarlet Canna Lily Care
Plant Canna Toucan Scarlet in part to full sun (4-6+ hours daily). Use an all-purpose, slow release fertilizer when planting in containers and landscape, and as they are heavy feeders, a water-soluble flowering plant food every two weeks at mid-season.
Whether you are planting this Canna in the landscape or in containers, make sure the soil is full of organic matter and well drained. For best results, keep the soil moist. Deadheading is not necessary, as Toucan Scarlet will continue to bloom, but taking off the seed pods will keep the plant looking tidy.
