Highlights from 2015

August was very dry here in 2015, so the season was not ideal. (July was unusually cool and wet, but August is the peak month for canna.) Still, the cannas made a great display. Click on pictures to see full-size image.


Hotsie Totsie gave me this image. It's always good, but seemed to especially like its location last year.



Lemon Frost was a new shorter one.



Mon Cher has a pink tone that carries. Also nice purple-edged leaves.



Richard Rehig and Lunar Light were among the tallest.



Divine Pink looked very good. Sometimes, I have to prune a few leaves of this one, so it doesn't overwhelm neighbors.



Tropicanna Black (or the red form of Cleopatra) is an orange red. Very dark leaves.



I had a lot of Fantastic Red, a great performer.



Here is Cheyenne.


Lady K



Sassy Sandy (limited) is a great container plant (quite short):



Femme Fatale was a bloom machine last year.


Natalie was filled with blooms.


Canova Bronze Scarlet


Rosemond Cole


My usual planting of Tropicanna, Red Futurity, and Bengal Tiger:
