Frequently asked questions
Your questions,answered.
What does the packet contain?
Approximately 15 non-organic bare seeds. South Pacific™ Scarlet F1 canna, Canna × generalis, produces uniform scarlet flowers on a vigorous, well-branched pollinator-friendly plant. The seed-grown South Pacific series is vigorous, uniform, and strongly basal branching, with lower risk from rhizome-borne disease. Plants grow 60 to 80 cm tall and spread 30 to 60 cm. Sow indoors five to six weeks before final frost. Soak seed 10 to 14 hours, then sow at least one and one-half times its diameter deep. Maintain 23 to 26°C; germination takes 7 to 10 days and maturity 11 to 15 weeks. Grow in sun in moist soil. The packet contains approximately 15 non-organic bare seeds.
Should seed be soaked?
Yes. W.H. Perron recommends soaking the seeds in water for 10 to 14 hours before sowing to soften their hard seed coat and improve germination. After soaking, sow them at least one and one-half times their diameter deep; sowing too shallowly may cause the seed to push out of the medium during emergence. Keep the medium moist, well drained, and warm at 23 to 26°C. Germination normally takes 7 to 10 days. This presoak is neither cold stratification nor mechanical scarification, so both fields remain FALSE. Handle clean seed with clean hands and containers, then discard the soaking water rather than reusing it. Avoid soaking much longer than directed because stagnant water can reduce oxygen around the seed.
When should it be sown?
Five to six weeks before final frost. South Pacific™ Scarlet F1 canna, Canna × generalis, produces uniform scarlet flowers on a vigorous, well-branched pollinator-friendly plant. The seed-grown South Pacific series is vigorous, uniform, and strongly basal branching, with lower risk from rhizome-borne disease. Plants grow 60 to 80 cm tall and spread 30 to 60 cm. Sow indoors five to six weeks before final frost. Soak seed 10 to 14 hours, then sow at least one and one-half times its diameter deep.

Is this canna safe for dogs and cats?
Yes. The ASPCA classifies Canna generalis, the garden canna corresponding to this product, as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses. Toxicity is therefore marked FALSE and pet friendly is marked TRUE. This classification does not mean a pet should freely eat the foliage or seeds. A substantial amount of plant material may cause digestive discomfort, and fertilizers, pesticides, or growing media carry their own risks. Keep seed packets, presoak water, and recently treated plants out of reach. If an animal consumes a large amount or develops unusual symptoms, contact a veterinarian and provide the name Canna × generalis along with the products used. Pet-friendly status describes the plant itself, not every substance present during cultivation.
