Canna Durban is
spectacular with just its foliage. The bright red finely striped
variegation fades as it ages providing great contrast with the new leaves
and the old. The bright orange flowers are produced from late Spring
through hard frost. Canna Durban prefers regular irrigation and well
drained soil with full sun. But this is a Canna and these plants are
far sturdier than they might look. They will take a summer break if
there isn't enough water or a winter break if it gets too cold.
Canna Durban will bloom in a shady entrance, albeit with much less vigor
than in full sun but the foliage is still extravagant. Canna Durban
is frost tolerant down to 0 with a thick layer of mulch over the root
zone.
