HAVE: Have: Unknown Yellow Cannas w/red speckles at throat

16 years ago

I have been thinning out my flower beds and have several trades of unknown yellow canna with red speckles at the throat. I would like to trade for daffodil, jonquil or narcissus bulbs. Prefer daffs other than the common yellow. Let me know what you have. Sjackwheat@aol.com

Stephanie, In addition to MalcolmÂs suggestions, one other possibility is a newer cream cultivar named C. ÂVanilla IceÂ. You are likely to find few photos to this cultivar. You might check HornÂs Canna Farm web page. I have a number of photos but have not published any on the web. The pale red streak on the labellum is typical. The burn depicted is quite common in our white or cream cannas and is simply a result of the aging process. All cannas show this symptom but the white color tends to make it more obvious. Unless shade delays the aging process, you will not likely see much improvement. Did you purchase this as a rhizome or as a potted plant? Good to see Malcolm posting here! Regards, Kent

Trades are getting slimmer. I've been weeding out the plants I don't want over the past few years and haven't got enough of the plants I like to be able to divide much. Hope that changes in a year or two! I can bring: My seed stash 1 black walnut seedling Daylilies (unknown type but definitely not ditch lilies) Mums (yellow) Black eyed susans Grape hyacinth bulbs Lycoris bulbs Small flowered coreopsis seedlings Russian sage cuttings (roots easily in water during the spring) Star of Bethlehem bulbs (can be VERY invasive and is very poisonous to dogs and cats but perhaps in a pot it wouldn't be too bad) Hyacinthoides (wood hyacinth)-white I may not get to dig all of these (time is getting short), so let me know if you want something and I'll make sure I bring it.
