Description
Flowers With a Canna-Do Attitude!Most flowers can't take the heat of late July and early August, but that's when dwarf cannas thrive. While these compact, tropical American plants fare best in sunny areas and well-drained earth, they grow fine in the boggy soil often found near ponds and streams. What's more, after the flowers finally fade, they simply fall away—so, no need for deadheading!
Enjoy a Garden Paradise Each Summer With Lush Foliage and Brilliant Blooms!
These stunning varieties from the exotic CannaSol™ series of dwarf cannas yield countless, colourful blooms for months on end. The large, flared flowers form in clusters atop the compact plants, which are just the right size for beautifying a border front or adding a tropical touch to a container garden. And not only are these plants deer resistant and certified to be virus free, their blooms are self-cleaning. The Breck's Tropical Dwarf Canna Collection represents the best of our best!
Includes 2 each of Happy Carmen®, Happy Emily®, Happy Wilma® and Happy Cleo®
Happy Carmen®: A vigorous variety that will add an exotic pop of rich red to your landscape. This canna's clusters of gorgeous flowers and lush, deep green foliage look fabulous in any garden bed or border front.
Happy Emily®: Put this jovial perennial in whatever forgotten corner that needs some cheer, and its beaming, orange-flecked, golden-yellow blooms will delight you for months. Flowers contrast with the deep green foliage.
Happy Wilma®: With its salmon-pink blooms and eggplant-coloured foliage, this canna is a stunner in any sunlit location. Its compactness makes it a wonderful choice for planting in border fronts or small gardens.
Happy Cleo®: Like a fiery, brilliant star, this cultivar's speckled, burnt-orange blooms are enormous and shine brightly. Deep green leaves grow on the well-branched plants. A natural focal point in the landscape.

Important Shipping Notes:
Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.
We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
