These seed pods are from the yellow canna Flaccida. The seed pods in the white net are cross polinated with a vivid red canna. The ones in the red are regular Flaccida. paul
Seed Pods
Paul are there cultivars of cannas that wont cross with each other, like brugs and dats. I have noticed that a lot of my cannas are not producing seeds, how common is it for the cannas to produce seed without our intervention?
Good question. I too would like to know because I also have cannas that don't produce seed pods that look as big as in Paul's pix.
lots of cannas dont make seeds mostly its the hybrids that dont . lots of the hybrids have been crossed so many times it chances there reroducion abilty . all species cannas make seeds some hybrid will make seeds to .many cannas make seed pods but no seeds . but with cannas never say never iv seen some cannas that are not supose to make seeds make seeds . paul
