How to care for Happy Cleo

  • Plant the bulbs in well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. 
  • Space them about 18-24 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation. 
  • Choose a location with full sun, as they thrive in at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily. 
  • Water them regularly, maintaining evenly moist soil, and feed them with a slow-release, balanced fertilizer.
  • As the plants grow, stake taller varieties to provide support. 
  • Remove spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. 
  • In colder climates, dig up the bulbs after the first frost, clean them, and store them in a cool, dry location over the winter months. Replant in spring after the risk of frost has passed.

Frequently Asked Questions

The ideal time to plant Canna Happy Cleo bulbs depends on your local climate. In USDA hardiness zones 7 and higher, you can plant the bulbs outdoors in the spring after the risk of frost has passed, typically from late March to early May.

For colder regions (zones 6 and below), start the bulbs indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Transplant them outdoors once temperatures consistently stay above 50°F (10°C) during the day and 40°F (4°C) at night. This will provide the bulbs with ample time to grow and bloom during the warmer months.

Canna Happy Cleo bulbs typically bloom in late spring to early summer, with the flowering season extending until the first frost in fall. The exact blooming time may vary depending on your location and growing conditions.

Cannas in general are hardy in USDA hardiness zones 7-10, so if you live within these zones you’re able to plant Cannas earlier in the season. In colder regions it is best to wait till the frost has passed.

These striking plants produce tall stalks adorned with large, brightly colored flowers that create a stunning display in the garden. To encourage continuous blooming, deadhead the spent flowers regularly, which will promote the growth of new flower stalks.

Canna Happy Cleo plants are considered moderately deer resistant. While no plant is entirely immune to deer grazing, canna plants are less attractive to deer compared to other garden favorites.

The thick, textured leaves and strong fragrance of the canna flowers may deter deer from browsing. However, if deer pressure is high in your area, it's advisable to take additional measures to protect your Canna Happy Cleo plants, such as installing deer fencing or using deer repellents.

Yes, Canna Happy Cleo bulbs can be successfully grown in containers, making them a versatile option for those with limited garden space or who want to add a tropical touch to their patios and balconies.

Choose a large, well-draining container with a minimum diameter of 18-24 inches to accommodate the plant's vigorous growth. Use a high-quality potting mix and ensure the container has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging. Like in-ground plantings, place the container in a sunny location and provide consistent moisture and regular fertilization.
