Canna flaccida requires bright, direct sunlight and thrives in warm, humid conditions. It prefers consistently wet soil and should be watered frequently to maintain moisture. The plant does well in moderate temperatures and high humidity.
土壌
Canna flaccida prefers loamy soil that is consistently wet or even waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot, but the soil should remain moist at all times.

Prune Canna flaccida to remove dead or damaged leaves and spent flowers. This helps to maintain the plant's appearance and encourages new growth. Pruning is best done during the growing season.
毒性
Canna flaccida is not toxic to pets or humans. All parts of the plant are considered safe.
