I managed to 'lose' my overwintering tubers and I REALLY love this canna for the foliage more than the flowers. Does anyone have any extra that I could get for postage?
Thank you for your consideration!
CLOSED: Want (need): Indian Shot "Red Stripe" Canna (canna indica)
I belive this canna is also called 'Virdis' if this is the one you are talking about I wld be happy to trade w/you. Donna
Donna, Verdi has tangerine blooms. Red Stripe has red blooms.
I had two big clumps of Red Stripe last year. Have had it for years and love it. This past winter killed every darned one I had and most of my other cannas too. It was just too wet for too long and they all rotted away. They only like wet feet when they're leafed out, but not when dormant. And our ground was wet all winter.
oops!! Red Stripe is what I have, the blooms are red & the leaves are dark burgandy/purple veins w/dark green between the ribs.
Scotchie...I'm sending you a dmail...
