Description / Canna 'Bengal Tiger' Bulbs
Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit
Canna 'Bengal Tiger' is a show-stopping canna lily that blooms all summer and grows to a mature size of 18 to 24 inches tall. This exotic, award-winning hybrid has a beautifully cohesive color scheme with its large, melon-orange blooms borne atop purple tinted stems and set against huge medium-green leaves with yellow stripes and subtle red rims.
Canna 'Bengal Tiger', synonymous with 'Striata' and 'Malawiensis Variegata', is a rhizomatous tender perennial that loves heat and humidity and thrives in Zones 8-11ideal for southern gardens. Its upright growth habit and fast growth rate make it a versatile choice for both individual planting in beds or containers and stunning mass plantings that deliver a bold visual impact.
Canna 'Bengal Tiger' is incredibly easy to grow and requires minimal care. It prefers full sun to partial shade and rich, well-draining soil that is kept consistently moist. Proper drainage is crucial to prevent bulb rot. Deadheading spent blooms by removing the entire flowering stalk encourages continued flowering. Allow the foliage to naturally wither before trimming. Canna 'Bengal Tiger' is also deer resistant, ensuring its beauty remains untouched.
Plant Canna 'Bengal Tiger' rhizomes 2 to 4 inches deep, spacing them 18 to 24 inches apart, with the "eyes" (3/5) facing upward. Apply mulch to protect them during winter. In areas where cannas are not winter hardy, plant the bulbs in early summer, and in fall, lift and store them in a cool, frost-free location for the season.
Stunning canna has tropical blooms and showy foliage, while they're not true lilies, they grow from rhizomes and so are easy to plant, divide, and take up if you're in a cooler hardiness zone. Find the details for growing cannas in our Canna Care Guide.
