Looking for Canna Seeds...

Carmel, NY(Zone 6b)

I would like to get seeds from any of the following Canna:

Red Stripe/Indian Shot
China Lady (Dwarf)
Pink Sunburst (Dwarf)
Bengal Tiger
Tropicanna
Princess Di (Dwarf)
Sunrise/Sunset
En Avant
Extase
Lucifer
Striped Beauty
...of just about any drawf or foliage variety.

All I have to offer in the Lily family are rhizomes of Ambassador or Big Red. I would be happy to pay postage AND send rhizomes of these, or seeds of other flowers/veggies.

Thank you for your consideration. I am new to Cannas and totally blown away! If no one has any to offer, can you recommend a seed source? (I have also posted this on the Lily and Seed Trading Forums.)

I'm not sure if you'd be interested in any hardy aquatic canna seeds, but my Longwood Yellow cannas actually produced 5 seeds this year.... Unfortunately, that's all I can offer.

Wow! I have never tried one of those but they certainly look nice and the instructions for over-wintering them seem pretty straighforward!

Is there something i can offer you for a trade?

I'll just give them to you, since all I have are 5 measly seeds (I had 7, but one fell into the bog where the parent plant is and one went down the drain when I was rinsing them), and since I also had a 'Futurity Rose' canna that was also blooming at the same time, I don't know what they'll turn out like....

Just Dmail me your address, and I'll try to get them out by this Friday (I need to get one of them bubble-wrap envelopes so that they won't go through a sorting machine and get crushed, or, as hard as canna seeds are, break the machine, LOL).

Got them last night! Thank you so much!!!

Just one question - do I start them the same a regular canna seeds?
