Canna Bengal Tiger
Canna 'Bengal Tiger'
A larger growing, brightly coloured variegated water canna. Its vibrant foliage in green, yellow and lime hues really stands out, and in summer it's accented by large spectacular orange flowers. Excellent water feature and one of the best flowering pond margin plants around. It's a quick grower for a large pot too.
Feature:

Bold foliage tones, contrasting summer flower.

Uses: Use anywhere its showy leaf patterns and tones can be appreciated; in a large patio pot, near an entrance, by the pool, in a water feature. Contrast with dark colours.
Position: Warm and sunny. Canna's really do respond to summer warmth. Tolerant of both dry and wet conditions.
Care: Trim spent flowers and scruffy leaves to encourage new growth. Dies back over winter in cooler areas. Apply a general fertiliser early in spring.
