Very large-structured canna, 'Gigundo,' boasts extra large paddle-shaped leaves, with maroon mid-ribs, leaf margins, bud stems, and stems. Its small, vermilion-to-coral blooms are extremely hummingbird attractive and a great contrast against the bronzed leaves.
Its tall stature and bronze leaves also make it an excellent candidate for privacy, as wind-break, or even as sound block from a busy street. At a height of 8ft, this canna is quite versatile, to say the least.
