Canna 'Bangkok Yellow' - Tuberous perennial. Growing 4-6 feet tall with striking yellow and green variegated foliage and large bright yellow flowers in summer-fall. AKA 'Nirvana', 'King of Siam' - A plant so spectacular it deserves so many names. Medium water needs. Hardy to 0 degrees F. We grew this plant from 1995 until 2005 when it was diagnosed as having canna yellow mottle virus (CaYMV). We only continued to grow Canna varieties that were determined to not be infected nor susceptible to this virus.
This description is based on our research and observations made of this plant as it grows in our nursery, in the nursery garden and in other gardens that we have visited. We also try to incorporate comments received from others and appreciate getting feedback of any kind from those who have additional information about this plant, particularly if they disagree with what we have written or if they have additional cultural tips that would aid others in growing Canna 'Bangkok Yellow'.
