If you have a spot in your garden that stays wet, this Canna is a great option. Not only do Cannas like water, they are a great option for a rain or bog garden. 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.

Canna Toucan Scarlet reaches a height of 30-48 inches tall and has a spread of 18-24 inches. For best results space plants 18-24 inches. Use 1 Canna Toucan Scarlet in a container for a bold thriller.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
