I was thinking I might try to plant something like this in my yard. Not sure if I can pull it off.

    Canna lilies are amazing. Another species brought to Europe centuries ago as a crop, that turn took over as an ornamental flower. I’m sprouting canna lily seeds this winter. Cannot wait.

    Lots of water and well drained soil flowers are rad

    Cana Lily. They grow from seeds and will reproduce in most gardens.

    Sun and water! They come in smaller sizes and a variety of leaf and flower colours. They’re annuals in many places but you can wait for the first frost to kill off the foliage, then dig up the rhizome and store it the way you’d store a dahlia, and replant the following year.

    Canna lily. A good round house works best.

    Canna lilies are indestructible and grow in many soil types. Propagate excellently, tough re dry soil and poor soil. Pretty flowers. The plant can be a bit invasive and crowd your other plants.

    there’s a house on one of my dog walks that has these in the back yard and they are huge and absolutely stunning. beautiful plants!

  9. Those are cannas, I live in the Pacific Northwest and have several , they do great in zone 8 and warmer

    I think they like both sun and shade so they stay more healthier

    You didn’t bother to say where you are, that matters completely

    No one so far has told us how to care for them. I only read 20 or so comments! These plants grow so well that in winter we cut them off at the ground! They will grow again in spring and look fantastic again! I live in Australia so I don’t know how this would go in colder parts of the U.S. Good luck and don’t forget to give them some fertilizer. Not too much or they will just produce all leaves and no flowers
