Re: A question related to canna.
After sometime yes but not immediately as the leaves make food for the plant... when you see there are plenty of new shoots coming up them cut them from base with a sharp blade...

Re: A question related to canna.
Leaves are naturally dieing on my plants. Why not cut them off. They are susceptible to fungus i guess?

Re: A question related to canna.
If they are naturally dying then please go ahead and remove them...
