Description
Bright pink lily-style flowers against a background of burgundy bronze foliage and stems seems almost too good to be true. Canna 'Rose Futurity' can give you just that - a completely different colour combination that will stand out when planning your garden landscape. Her gorgeous deep red-pink blooms stand out in clusters atop long spikes that lift them over the dark foliage, bringing to your garden the exotic image of the tropical and subtropical lands that were once this plant’s home. A dwarf variety, Canna 'Rose Futurity' will be under a metre tall, but she will not be overlooked because of her size.
Gracy tells: Look at the leaves!
"Canna leaves are bold and famous for their tropical look. Most Canna Lily cultivars have rich emerald-green leaves, but some (like Canna 'Rose Futurity') have red to bronze leaves!"

Useful information
-
Soak your Canna 'Rose Futurity' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting.
Plant your bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors.
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed.
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
