Canna should grow well in most parts of the UK, provided sheltered from strong winds etc. Thy are not frost hardy so tubers should be lifted and stored over winter.

TOP GERMINATION TIP!!! Canna seeds have a very hard outer coating so can take a long time to germinate. I have experimented with several ways and the "boiling water" technique is by far the best with seeds sprouting within almost a week. 

Seed Germination Guide

Either:

1. a) Place seeds in a cup and pour on some almost boiling water. Add cold water straight away/
2. b) Soak seeds in warm water for 48 hours or make a small nick in the seed-coat prior to sowing

Then:

1. Sow seeds a few inches apart on trays of well draining compost mix - ideally 50/50 compost and verminulite
2. Cover the seeds with about a cm of compost
3. Ensure compost is moist but not wet.
4. Keep at room temperature circa 20°C 
5. Keep out of direct sunlight
6. Pot on once established into individual pots
7. Plant out once the risk of frost has long gone.
