Canna 'Queen Charlotte'

Pleased with all the new cannas. Leaves on these a bit motheaten; slugs I expect. Grown from bulbs, so better than I anticipated.

The Canna's seem to have flowered really well this year. My one has decided it's had enough and is dying back. I put it in the greenhouse for the winter.

In the end, Linda, I dug up and discarded all the cannas as I think they were suffering from canna virus. The leaves on all 3 sorts, even the dark-leaved one, were striped yellow. I have only kept the patens I grew from seed. If I want any next year I will go to the specialist growers, and not buy bulbs.

That's a shame Ange. Well, good luck with next year's venture.
