Canna Lilly

The canna lily (Canna indica) is a bold, tropical-looking perennial known for its large, paddle-shaped leaves and vibrant, showy flowers that range in color from red and orange to yellow and pink. Its towering stems and lush foliage create a dramatic focal point in gardens, borders, or containers, and the plant thrives in warm, sunny locations throughout the summer.An interesting fact about the canna lily is that its edible rhizomes have been used as a food source in many cultures, particularly in South America and Asia, where they are valued for their high starch content and are sometimes ground into flour.
