Grows to about 5-6 feet tall with lance-shaped glaucous-green leaves and medium-sized bright red flowers. A Longwood Garden aquatic canna: you can plant in ponds no deeper than 8 inches underwater.

We only continued to grow Canna varieties that were determined to not be infected nor susceptible to this virus.
