About this plant
Canna Lily Green suits outdoor spots with full sun, tolerates light afternoon shade. Its pet safety is not confirmed, so check with your vet if you have pets.
Wants full sun and copes with light afternoon shade, with large, upright, banana-like leaves and bright flower spikes.
Canna Lily Green is a green-leaved canna with large, upright, banana-like leaves and spikes of bright flowers, usually in red, orange or yellow. It is a tropical perennial from the Americas that grows from thick rhizomes, sold as Canna indica and its hybrids. It is not a true lily.
It suits Dubai if it gets enough water. Cannas take strong sun and heat and keep flowering through the warm months. They do not like drying out: in summer, dry soil quickly gives crisp brown leaf edges. Wind can tear the large leaves, so a slightly sheltered spot looks better. In winter growth slows and old stems can be cut back to tidy the clump.
Plant in groups in flower beds, along borders and paths, around pools and water features, or in large patio pots. The green foliage works well behind lower flowering plants. We offer it as a young plant from 30 cm to 40 cm.

Care guide for Dubai homes
How to keep Canna Lily Green healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Full sun; tolerates light afternoon shade. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Every 1-2 days in summer, keeping the soil moist; 2-3 times a week in winter. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: rich, moisture-retentive soil with added compost. Feeding: a balanced flowering fertilizer every 3-4 weeks in the warm months. Common mistake: planting it in a windy, dry spot, which shreds and browns the large leaves. Where it works: flower beds, borders, pool surrounds and large patio pots.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.
Pets
Toxicity: not assessed. This plant isn't in the ASPCA's toxic and non-toxic plant database, which doesn't mean it's safe, only that it hasn't been listed. If you have pets or small children, check with your vet or doctor before bringing it home.
