Description
A semi-dwarf plant, Canna 'Caballero' is definitely not as tall as some of his kinsfolk. This Spanish gentleman only reaches a little over half a metre in height (2 ft). However, In spite of this, he will certainly leave a large impact on your garden between July and November. That’s when his unusually-coloured flowers open in amongst his green foliage. Several flowers will bloom at the end of the spike, but there’s a good chance each will be individual both in terms of its colour and its size. These subtle changes will definitely add to the excitement of Canna 'Caballero's bright sunshine yellow blooms spattered with red markings.
Gracy tells: Look at the leaves!
"Canna leaves are bold and famous for their tropical look. Most Canna Lily cultivars (like Canna 'Caballero) have rich emerald-green leaves, but some have red to bronze leaves!"
