April 18th, 2010: Canna Lily 'Tropicanna' (Canna x generalis) by smurf428
What a gorgeous photo! You've inspired me to be sure to photograph the cannas, that I admire growing across the street every year, this summer. Great growing and showing! ^_^
very cool shot!!
I bought two of these Tropicannas from Home depot last year and they were absolutely gorgeous all summer mixed in with lantana and sweet potato vine. I left them in their containers and brought them in doors over the winter - hope that they'll come back - saw some signs of life on them earlier this week.
Great photos!
