Botanical Classification

Bronze Foliage & Vibrant Blooms

This robust perennial grows 4-5 feet tall with large, paddle-shaped leaves in deep bronze-purple to chocolate-brown, creating a stunning backdrop even before flowering. The flowers are a rich orange-scarlet, 3-4 inches across, held in clusters atop the foliage from mid-summer through fall. The color combination is harmonious and sophisticated.

Like all cannas, 'Wyoming' thrives in full sun with rich, moisture-retentive soil and regular feeding. It's a heavy water user during active growth. Hardy in zones 7-10 with winter mulch; in colder zones, lift rhizomes after frost and store cool and dry. Divide every 3-4 years to maintain vigor.

Design Excellence

The dark foliage makes this canna exceptionally versatile—it pairs beautifully with gold, chartreuse, pink, white, and blue companions. Use in tropical borders, water garden margins, large containers, and as a focal point. The foliage color persists all season, providing structure long after other perennials fade. A connoisseur's canna choice.
