Belledeva Thalia Dealbata Canna Lily

This plant thrives in shallow water or boggy soil. You should submerge the pot so that the water level is anywhere from the soil surface up to 6 inches deep.

The Thalia Dealbata is hardy in zones 6 through 10. If you live in a colder climate, you may need to bring the plant indoors or move it to a deeper part of the pond where the roots won't freeze during winter.

Yes, it is a fast-growing, tall aquatic plant that can reach up to 60 inches. Because of its height, it works best as a background element in your water garden to add vertical interest.

For the best results and consistent purple blooms, place the plant in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. While it can tolerate some shade, more sunlight generally encourages more vigorous flowering.

Upon arrival, gently rinse the roots and plant them in an aquatic pot using heavy garden soil or specialized aquatic planting media. Ensure the crown of the plant is just below the soil line and top with a layer of gravel to keep the soil in place when submerged.
