Description
Compact yet striking, Canna Lily Cannasol® Happy Carmen bursts with large, rich red flowers atop sturdy green foliage. Unlike taller canna varieties, this hybrid stays compact, making it ideal for small gardens, containers, or as a colorful edging plant. It blooms continuously from late spring through fall, ensuring a long season of vibrant, tropical-style beauty. This variety is bred for improved disease resistance and vigorous growth, making it a low-maintenance yet highly rewarding addition to any garden.
Thriving in full sun to partial shade, Cannasol® Happy Carmen grows best in well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Deadheading spent blooms by cutting stems back to the nearest healthy leaf will promote continuous flowering. Plant the rhizomes 1 inch deep with the sprouts facing upward, ensuring proper root establishment. Hardy in zones 7-10, this canna can be lifted and stored in colder regions for replanting the following season.
