'Shinning Lemon'
Golden and glowing, Canna 'Shinning Peach' radiates warmth and vitality throughout the height of summer and well into autumn. Its elegant, upright stems rise proudly from a base of lush green foliage, each leaf broad and glossy enough to evoke the luxuriance of a tropical garden. Above them, clusters of soft lemon-yellow flowers unfurl in succession, catching the light like shards of sunshine. Whether you’re looking to bring an exotic edge to a mixed border or to create a statement in a large container, Canna 'Shinning Peach' delivers drama with refinement—never showy, yet impossible to overlook.
From mid-summer to early autumn, Canna 'Shinning Peach' maintains its captivating display, lending a sense of movement and grace as its leaves rustle in the breeze. The long flowering season and generous foliage ensure continuous interest, bridging the gap between late summer exuberance and autumn’s golden tones. Thriving in moist, rich soil and full sun, this striking perennial rewards minimal effort with maximum presence. With Canna 'Shinning Peach' at centre stage, even the simplest planting scheme feels instantly more vibrant and joyfully alive.

Plant calendar
Remove the packaging straight away, check the compost and water thoroughly if dry. Check the plant’s hardiness before placing it outdoors. Plant into a border or permanent container within a month, choosing the position recommended for the variety. Keep the top of the root ball level with the surrounding soil, firm gently and water well.
Soak the roots in water for three to six hours immediately before planting. Keep any crown, buds or emerging shoots above the water where possible.
Pot most bare roots into 15–20cm pots filled with peat-free multipurpose compost. Large or depth-sensitive roots, including peonies, are often best planted directly into borders.
Arrange the roots naturally without bending them. Cover the roots completely, positioning the crown and buds at the depth recommended for that particular perennial.
Keep pots in a sheltered outdoor position and water whenever the compost begins to dry. Grow on until roots hold the compost together when lifted from the pot.
Plant into a suitable border or permanent container once well rooted. Add a label and water regularly throughout the first growing season while the perennial establishes.
