The [Royal Horticultural Society profile](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/352467/canna-%C3%97-generalis-cannova-bronze-scarlet-fcaa35-cannova-series/details) identifies the Bronze Scarlet selection and describes its bronze-tinted leaves and bright scarlet flowers. ## Siting and care Give it full sun and consistent moisture during active growth. Use fertile, moisture-retentive soil that drains freely, and leave room for the upright leaves and flowering stems. It suits a warm border or a substantial patio pot; in containers, water regularly through summer. ## Maintenance Remove spent flower stalks to encourage continued flowering. In frost-prone climates, lift and store the rhizomes after frost damages the foliage, then replant after the last spring frost.
