Australia Canna Lily Bulb – Deep Crimson Blooms, Dark Chocolate Bronze Foliage, Tropical Garden Perennial, Zones 3–9, 4–5 Ft Tall, Summer Rhizome, 1 Bulb

Brand: Horn Canna Farm

Color: Red, Bronze

Features:

• DARKEST FOLIAGE OF ANY CANNA VARIETY: Australia sets the standard for bold, dark-leaved cannas. The broad, paddle-shaped leaves emerge in a deep, glossy chocolate bronze that holds its color throughout the entire growing season. No other canna variety goes as dark, making Australia the go-to choice for gardeners who want dramatic, high-contrast foliage that performs even between bloom cycles.
• VIVID CRIMSON BLOOMS AGAINST A DARK BACKDROP: The rich red flowers that appear above Australia's dark foliage create one of the most striking color contrasts in the summer garden. The combination of near-black leaves and jewel-toned blooms is especially powerful when planted in mass or alongside green-leafed companions, where the contrast is at its maximum.
• STUNNING IN CONTAINERS AND MIXED BORDERS: Australia is one of the top-performing canna varieties for container planting on decks, patios, and walkways. The upright form and deep foliage color pair beautifully with chartreuse, silver, or bright green companion plants. At 4 to 5 feet tall, it has enough presence for a specimen planting without overwhelming a smaller space.
• WIDE ZONE RANGE, HEAT-LOVING PERFORMANCE: Rated for USDA Zones 3 through 9, Australia performs across an exceptional range of climates. Plant rhizomes in spring once the soil has warmed to at least 60°F, spacing them 12 to 18 inches apart and 1 to 2 inches deep in full to part sun. A high-nitrogen fertilizer applied twice monthly encourages the most vigorous growth and the richest foliage color.
• FRESH, MULTI-EYE RHIZOME READY TO PLANT: Each order includes one grade 3/5 eye rhizome with a minimum of 3 to 5 eyes, packed fresh and ready for spring planting. Canna rhizomes multiply readily each season, so a single planting quickly expands into a full, lush clump. In Zones 7 to 9, Australia can overwinter in the ground under mulch. In colder zones, dig and store before the first hard frost.
