If you couldn't tell I love the leaves as much as I love the blossoms. More canna leaf detail:

Stuttgart - This ones name is 'Little Mo'


Stuttgart


Pink Sunburst - I have nick named this one my 'Pink Valentine'!


These cannas have come to me from the sweetheart members here on Bananas.org

Thank you very much! ~JaNan

Thanks Dean W - maybe we can swap some in the Spring. What kind do you have?

SaltyDad - Taylor or Momoese can correct me if I'm wrong but I think the top pink one with the bluegreen leaves is the one Taylor found online:

I have never seen leaf rollers on Canna's. Didn't even knew they existed.
Nevertheless I will keep an eye on my Cannas this year to see if there
are any caterpillars on the leaves.
Mine are all in pots now to give them a headstart and they are pushing
leaves now.

Btw ...I had Leaf Rollers in Roses in the past.

Yes, they love eating the rolled up leaves. If I find them and the plants are not overly infested I smash them with my fingers.

Luckily we had a cold winter so I would assume they may be less of a problem here this year.

I haven't had any problems with leaf rollers, knock on wood! Here's a few of my little peeps opening up.

Bengal Tiger


Montana


Wyoming


Tropicana


Unsure of this one at the moment. One of the horses got out and tromped all over some of the flower beds. I will know after it blooms.

almost everything is growing and I am geting excited about all my new cannas. I had no frost this year so all my cannas made it and now just want to flower. so I have been cuting down anything flowering to get some new growth.
this is the only one I saved becase I have never seen it flower.


this is the banana canna very tall with small red flowers, it did great last year until the summer came then it just looks bad. I hope it does better this year with it more established. this is the third leaf on a new plant.



random collected seeds from az, cali, and hi. about 75 plants cant wait to see what they all are.
