Default Re: Like the AEAE LOOK? - Stuttgart Canna

Terry,

You have to grow Stuttgart Cannas in the shade, otherwise you will always have sun burn damaged leaves.

I'd LOVE to get one that looks like the pic above. Beautiful plant but I sure can't figure it out. Ae-Ae takes a LOT more sun.

Enjoy - and I'll take ANY tips on growing this sucker.
