Canna indica Tropical Red – Intense tropical power in a compact size

With its deep, fiery red blooms, this canna instantly brings energy and warmth to any outdoor space. A perfect choice for growers, retailers, and consumers seeking maximum color impact with minimal care.

Compact growth with maximum ornamental value

The Tropical series is known for its dwarf growth and efficient cultivation. Unlike traditional, tall-growing cannas, Canna indica Tropical Red remains more compact and well-branched. This makes it particularly suitable for container cultivation and smaller gardens, without compromising on appearance and flowering profusion.

The large, exotic flowers in intense red contrast beautifully with the fresh green foliage. This vibrant color creates a distinctly tropical ambiance that perfectly complements summer trends and colorful garden designs. Tropical Red makes an impressive focal point in any pot or border.

Fast production and powerful pot filling

A key advantage of the Tropical series is its short production time. Canna indica Tropical Red grows rapidly and actively produces side shoots. This allows pots to quickly fill with a rich, bushy structure.

The natural branching pattern results in compact, uniform plants with a full appearance. For growers, this means efficient production and reliable quality. For retailers, it offers a strong sales product that looks mature and attractive early in the season.

The combination of fast pot filling and striking flowering ensures excellent retail performance and high consumer appreciation.

Ideal for patios, balconies and summer plantings

Its compact growth and long flowering period make Tropical Red a versatile plant. It's perfect for:

• Patio pots and tubs

• Balcony boxes

• Patio and city gardens

• Summer borders

• Tropical and exotic gardens

Flowering begins in early summer and continues well into autumn. This canna performs best in warm, humid conditions. A sunny location encourages abundant flowering and vigorous growth.

Thanks to its tropical origins, the plant thrives in warmth and plenty of water. Regular watering and fertilizing will ensure continuous flowering.

Easy to maintain and robust

Canna indica Tropical Red is not only striking but also easy to care for. The plant requires little maintenance and is suitable for both novice and experienced gardeners. The sturdy stems support the flowers well and maintain their compact shape.

In colder climates, the rhizome can be dug up after the growing season and overwintered in a frost-free place. It can then be replanted in the spring for a new season of blooms.

Strong consumer appeal

The intense red color makes Tropical Red a real eye-catcher at the point of sale. Red-flowering plants immediately grab attention and create emotion and a sense of belonging. Combined with the full pot size and tropical appearance, this dwarf canna has high commercial value.

Its rapid growth, abundant flowering, and low-maintenance qualities make Canna indica Tropical Red appealing to a wide audience. From city gardens to spacious patios, this plant delivers an instant summery impact.

Care tips for optimal performance

For best results:

• Place in full sun

• Use nutritious, well-drained potting soil

• Water regularly, especially during warm periods

• Fertilize during the growing season for maximum flowering

With the right care, Tropical Red develops into a strong, profusely flowering patio plant that adds color and a tropical atmosphere for months.
