Tropicanna canna  are mostly outdoor foliage plants, with blooms being a bonus. The variegated leaves are what makes it special. Each leaf is tightly wound up in the shape of a long tube initially and is purple. It is entertaining to watch it as it unwinds. Once the leaf surface is fully visible, you will see it contains a pattern of stripes in four colors: purple, red, green, and yellow. These are fast-growing plants that can reach anywhere from 2 to 6 feet in height. Just how tall your Tropicanna becomes will depend on conditions.

Light: These plants do best in full to part sun. They'll grow in partial shade, too, but won't flower as much.

Watering: This is NOT a drought tolerant plant. Regular watering is a must. Let cannas go too dry and they'll let you know just how unhappy they are with you. Water 2 to 3 times a week during warm weather. You might want to add water-retention crystals when planting.
