Yellow Canna Lily Care

Canna lilies are easy to care for, but thrive best with the right combination of sunlight, water, and soil. The Yellow Canna Lily, in particular, flourishes when given consistent moisture and warm temperatures, rewarding you with brilliant golden blooms.

Light: Yellow Canna Lilies grow best in full sun, needing at least six hours daily to achieve their boldest flower color. In very hot climates, some afternoon shade helps extend bloom life.

Soil: Plant in rich, well-draining soil amended with compost.

Spacing: Space plants 18–24 inches apart to allow room for growth.

Container Growing: The Yellow Canna Lily grows well in large pots on patios or balconies where it receives direct sunlight.

Overwintering: In colder regions (Zones below 7), lift the rhizomes before frost. Store them in a cool, dry place in peat moss until spring.

Indoor Care: If overwintered indoors, keep soil lightly moist and place near a bright window.

Water: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot summer months. Water one to two times per week depending on rainfall.

Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fertilizer monthly during the growing season.

Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Prune foliage after frost to prepare for dormancy.

This shop has the most fantastic, healthy, gorgeous plants. I am a repeat customer and have never been disappointed. In fact the plants have always exceeded my expectation and plants are often much larger than expected. Packaging is some of the most professional I've seen, with not one leaf damaged. I'll be back for more.
