Transplanting Canna

Plant in late winter to spring in an area that can easily be irrigated regularly in full sun. Cannas also like rich soil, therefore, add peat moss, compost, or aged manure to the planting area. Plant about two feet apart. Inspect regularly for leaf rollers and/or fungus.1

Canna is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
