A Compact Tropical Showstopper
Unlike traditional canna lilies that grow tall and unwieldy, South Pacific Orange stays more compact — typically reaching a height of 24–36 inches. This makes it ideal for small-space gardens and front-row plantings where a pop of bright color is desired. Its upright, well-branched habit ensures strong visual appeal, and the bold orange petals contrast beautifully against lush, tropical green leaves.
South Pacific Orange is part of the All-America Selections (AAS) winning series, known for outstanding garden performance. It’s especially valued for its uniform growth, long flowering window, and ability to bloom from seed in the same season.
How to Grow South Pacific Orange Canna from Seed
Growing canna from seed is rewarding and cost-effective, especially for gardeners planting large beds or commercial landscapes.
Here’s how to start them right:
-
Scarify seeds: Use a file or soak in warm water for 12–24 hours to improve germination.
-
Sow indoors early: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost date.
-
Warm soil: Keep soil temperatures between 70–75°F for best germination.
-
Full sun only: Transplant outdoors after danger of frost into full sun and rich, moist soil.
Expect flowers to start blooming by midsummer, continuing through to the first frost — a welcome burst of color when many other plants start to fade.
