Looking quite lovely in the garden is a stunning Southeast US native, Canna glauca ‘Panache’. The natural flower colors of Canna glauca, commonly known as water canna, range from white to pink, but we love this bicolor peachy yellow selection. Although it natively grows in shallow water, it also thrives quite well in average garden soil as you can see here. It is as spreading species, so plant it where it has plenty of room to grow. For us, it matures around 5-6′ in height. Hardiness is Zone 7a-10b.
