Canna Angel Martin

Canna ‘Angel Martin’ is a striking canna lily with outstanding ornamental appeal. Soft peachy-pink flowers are carried on sturdy stems above dramatic dark bronze foliage, creating a bold tropical contrast. Flowering from early summer through to early autumn, this variety delivers long-lasting colour and impact in the garden.

A heat-loving, rhizomatous perennial, Canna ‘Angel Martin’ has a strong, upright growth habit and performs best when planted in groups, where its foliage and flowers can create a truly impressive display. It is equally effective in borders, flower beds, and large containers.
