Blooming from early summer to the first frosts, ‘Cannova Yellow' boasts robust growth and extensive branching ensuring lavish flowering and a lush-looking plant. The jungle-esque foliage gives rise to radiant spikes of faintly-speckled yellow flowers held above large, blue-green paddle-shaped leaves. This compact Canna thrives very well in cooler summers, and is ideally suited for the border, as a patio plant or by the margins of a pond.
