Canna 'Erebus' - This tuberous perennial performs best in full sun receiving regular water. Salmon-pink flowers occur from summer into fall. Reaches 3 to 4 feet tall with lance-shaped, glaucous-green leaves and medium-sized salmon-pink flowers. 'Erebus' is one of four hybrids bred at Longwood Gardens for use in water gardens and grows shorter and more compact than other Longwood cannas. Ideally suited for use in average garden soil or in the pond with no more than 4 to 6 inches of water above the soil line. Cold hardy to 0 degrees F. We grew this plant from 1995 until 2009.
