Giant Canna Yellow King Humbert
Giant Canna Yellow King Humbert
With its cheery yellow flowers, spotted with red, Yellow King Humbert Giant Cannas make a bold statement in sunny beds and borders. These giant cannas grow 4-5' tall. Clusters of showy, bold yellow flowers start blooming in midsummer—and they'll keep blooming until the first fall frost. The green, elliptical foliage creates a tropical effect. Able to handle the summer heat, cannas have been long valued by park and municipal gardeners. Now home gardeners realize the value of these new hybrids as each year their popularity grows.

Thank you for writing a review of the Giant Canna Yellow King Humbert. We are so sorry to hear that this item failed to grow. Luckily, we have a No-Risk Guarantee on our plants. One of our Customer Care agents will be reaching out to you soon with a positive resolution.
Seriously?
All arrived dried up. I would be totally embarrassed to have sent something out like this that represents my company! I've been growing Cannas for over 50 years and there is nothing alive in these bulbs, I'm just amazed they sent something like this. The other bulbs in a different color arrived in about the same shape, but I might be able to plant and see what happens, not sure. I also ordered some Cannas from another company, and I would LOVE TO SHOW Dutch bulbs what REAL bulbs should look like!

Hello, can the giant variegated Canna bulbs be planted in large (10 gallon) patio containers?
- Asked by Terry
- Verified Reply - ViciYou might be able to plant them in 10 gallon patio containers but I would recommend dwarf cannas for that. Cannas have a system of tubers that grow so large that they can break a pot. Giant Cannas are recommended to be planted directly into the ground or use a very large pot.
