that' exquisite. I am pea-green w/ envy. Yours is so white-looking. My ermine is more of a vanilla ice cream color. Of course, it could just be the camera. You did great!

It is an exquisite flower and a very healthy plant. Congratulations on a great find. It appears to be one of the dwarf varieties but that is the extent of my knowledge of cannas. Maybe Brian will chime in with an ID.

thanks, yall i have been waiting forever for it to bloom! on the canna forum i said that i think it should be called southern magnolia because of the large blooms and pure white color... just my opinion

I never find anything like that at our HD or Lowes. It IS a gorgeous Canna! Guess I need to pay more attention to the plant than the tag! (I had to come over here and see it, TL) This is the Ermine, right? I first saw it 2 or 3 years ago, a gentleman in Poland showed me a pic and I've never taken time to search one out.
