Park Seed Tropicanna Canna Lily Bulb

You can absolutely grow it in a container. Because it reaches up to 72 inches tall, just ensure you use a large, sturdy pot that can support its height and weight without tipping over.

Since this is a tender perennial, you will need to lift the rhizomes in the fall after the first frost. Clean them off, let them dry, and store them in a cool, dark, frost-free place until you can replant them in the spring.

To get the deepest, most vibrant purple-black color on the leaves and the best bloom production, you should plant it in a location that receives full sun, which is at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily.

It grows in a dense, upright, clumping habit rather than spreading via runners. While it will slowly increase in size over the years, it is generally well-behaved and easy to manage.
