Canarina canariensis (Canary Bellflower)

150 (400)cm, Canary Bellflower is a beautiful herbaceous climbing perennial with bluish green leaves, slightly succulent stems and a tuberous root. Makes showy, large bell shaped bright orange to orange red pendulous flowers followed by astonishingly large, edible (!), walnut sized, bright orange yellow fruits. Native of open spots in the laurel forest mainly on Tenerife and Gran Canaria, rare to very rare on La Gomera, El Hierro and La Palma. Populations from La Palma have rounder fruits and larger seeds. Keep dry as soon as plants go dormant at higher temperatures in summer. Start to water again as soon as new growth appears in autumn. Requires a climbing aid and is mainly winter-growing. V-VII.
