Borderline hardy here in the Pacific NW, consider planting this gorgeous red-leafed canna in a container so it can be moved to a sheltered spot in the winter.

Product Description

We love it when a plant has foliage that is as spectacular as its flowers and Canna 'Red Velvet' definitely falls into that category. Deep red leaves stand tall - two to four feet - making it a perfect "thriller" in large container planters, surrounded by other sun-loving plants, flowering or otherwise. Cannas are also often used along ponds or streams, as they are wet-area tolerant and add that tropical look. As if the thick bronzy-colored leaves aren't attractive enough, 'Red Velvet' will send up stalks of exotic red flowers starting in midsummer and into the fall.  
If grown in a container, move this canna under shelter once the leaves have died down. Alternatively, the rhizomes may be dug up and stored on barely moist compost/soil and replanted in the spring once all threat of frost is past.
