Thanks Pam I do enjoy walking the fields it is one of the highlights of my summers. It seems that each day a few new cannas will be flowering and it never does gets boring looking at new cannas.
It seems the more of them I look at the more pickier I become. Many of the hybrids have to preform very well or have some unique color pattern or size before they can move on to the next stages.

Here is one that I worked for sometime. This is out of my larger hybrid breeding. I have been trying to breed tall hybrids as well as super minitures. This reminds me a lot of a dark Canna Musafolia type. I believe it got to over 9 to 10 feet tall. Not for everyone but useful in my landscapes as a back drop plant.
