Canna compacta

150 (190)cm, has elegant broad, banana-like leaves and branching inflorescences with quite large, showy orange-red flowers with a yellowish inner stripe. For any rich, humus rich soil in a sunny spot in summer. The identity of this plant is still uncertain, and usually it is synomymized with the very variable Canna indica. Be it what it may be, Canna compacta looks like a Canna patens on steroids, being significantly larger in all parts. Our plants are seed raised, and all plants are identical and readily set viable and quite large seeds. VI-IX.
