This is the nursery and were I live. The beds are made to as a tropical display as well as a way for me to propagate and breed with my plants. Most of these plants are the mother plants to most of my hybrids and the beds are at times places were I test out the look of my hybrids. Some forms I miss judge I have a few tall growing cannas up front and dwarfs in the back due to me not knowning what they will do exactly. But each year the display gets better and larger it seems. Here is a pic of the parking lot out front by the road. This display by the road is left out every winter. It consist of 15 well known varieties of cannas around 18 hardy forms of bananas and 7 varietes of hardy colocasias. All the plants are mulched and over wintered in the ground here. |
