Canna x generalis Cannova ‘Gold Leopard’
Introducing the Cannova Gold Leopard?the latest addition to the exotic Cannova menagerie! This striking spotted leopard is a showstopper, featuring a unique animal print pattern with a golden ground overlaid with irregular deep orange spots, making it a true standout in any garden or landscape. The Cannova Series of Cannas is unlike anything else on the market, and Cannova Gold Leopard is no exception. Despite its tropical appearance, this stunning plant is incredibly tough, cold-tolerant, and long-flowering. Starting its vibrant display in April, it continues to bloom all summer long until the first frosts, bringing a splash of colour throughout the season. Whether basking in summer heat or enduring cooler British summers, Cannova Gold Leopard thrives, delivering reliable blooms in a range of climates. This powerful plant produces strong, branching stems and large, lush tropical leaves, making it perfect for both borders and containers. Standing at a height of 75 cm (30 in) with a spread of 40 cm (16 in), it?s an eye-catching addition to any garden. Culinary note: The rhizomes of the Canna lily are edible! While they can be eaten raw with a flavor similar to water chestnut (though sometimes slightly bitter), they are also delicious when boiled or baked, offering a texture and taste similar to that of a potato. Cannova Gold Leopard is a versatile, long-blooming beauty that combines the best of both worlds: tropical charm and hardy performance. Add it to your garden for a stunning, colourful display all season long!
