FULL sun !?

High Desert, NV(Zone 5a)

I moved a few years back and haven't had canna here. I couldn't live without a Tropicanna this year and bought myself one. I have always had mine in full sun. Well, full sun here (high desert) can be scorching (100+ temps at least half a dozen days a summer) in this situation would you still place a canna in full sun? It will be in a pot since they aren't winter hardy here, i can provide it all the water it likes, i just don't want to fry it's leaves.

Thanks for any info!

Hello Melissa, I'm in the desert in NM where from mid may all the way until August there are constant 100+ temps. I dream of 85 degrees, lol! Anyway, I do alot of cannas and they are all in full sun and do fine. Just remember to keep things well watered.
