Thalia

Colorful and tall, this cousin of the canna develops huge leaves that turn gold in the fall. Its flowers are perched in bunches atop tall stems and add wonderful texture to water gardens. The plant dominates the pond with its far-reaching foliage, so is best limited to one per small pond. Plant this tall aquatic in a large pot to stabilize and protect it from the wind.
