The speaker has recently moved into a new house and discovered a large plant they believe to be a Canna Lily. They are uncertain about how to care for it as they are unfamiliar with this plant. They express confusion and a sense of being overwhelmed by the task.
The Canna Lily is a tropical plant known for its vibrant flowers and large, broad leaves. It requires regular watering, well-drained soil, and plenty of sunlight to thrive. In colder climates, it can be planted in containers and brought indoors during the winter months.
To care for a Canna Lily, the speaker should ensure it receives at least six hours of sunlight per day and water it regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. They should also consider fertilizing the plant every few weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
It is important to monitor the plant for signs of pests or diseases, such as yellowing leaves or mold, and take appropriate action to address these issues promptly. With proper care and attention, the Canna Lily can flourish and bring beauty to the speaker’s new home.
