Canna FIRE DANCE

Canna is a bright summer wonder that turns the garden into a fiery dance of emotions. Its flowers resemble torches of flame: eruptions of prominences and rich shades of red-bronze, purple, and magenta create the sensation of living fire. Each bud opens over 2–4 days, and the flowering period lasts a full 25 days, allowing observation until the first frosts.

Canna leaves can be uniformly saturated purple or decorated with stripes of dark shades, adding dynamism and depth to the composition. Thanks to the variety of varieties and hybrids cultivated in the Nikita Botanical Garden since its founding, you can choose a plant for any taste: from bright magenta to a more subdued bronze.

Canna not only delights the eye but also possesses practical properties. Some species are used in cuisine, and rhizomes serve as rain predictors – dew drops appear on the leaves 6–9 hours before precipitation. This makes the plant a valuable element of the garden both as a decorative accent and a natural weather indicator.
