A fantastic canna with great design potential: purple leaves and blue-grey undersides surround medium pink flowers. This 6 foot tall slender beauty is self-cleaning and blooms all summer. Our plants are virus indexed and negative. Cannas offer great tropical foliage and are generally hardy to our temperatures but sensitive to winter wet. In the garden, plant in a well-drained sunny location and mulch with leaves. Cannas are also great in pots. Shelter these in a garage or shed for winter.
Canna Blueberry Sparkler is a new hybrid we developed here at Brians Botanicals. It looks similar to Canna intrigue with narrow purple to blue leaves the flowers are a light pink color and are medium size held above the foliage. It has been a easy grower and should give a bit more flower show compared to intrigue and others. A great contrasting plant in the garden. Plants are growing in Tissue culture and no signs of virus present.
