Planting and Growing Information
Plant Canna Richard Wallace rhizomes in spring after all danger of frost has passed, placing them 7-10 cm deep and spaced 30 cm apart in well-draining soil. These sun-lovers thrive in full to partial sun locations and appreciate consistent moisture. Hardy in zones 7-11, they'll reward your clients with vibrant blooms from late spring until first frost. In colder regions, advise clients to dig up rhizomes after the first frost and store them in a cool, dry place for winter protection.
