Canna Bloom...

Mesa, AZ(Zone 9b)

This plant was not looking good when I got it from Home D a couple of months ago. I cut off the dead stuff and planted it. Nice bloom now. Before pic below.

It wasn't even threatening to bloom 2-3 weeks ago when I took this pic on Oct 21st. The 'tropicanna' is blocking the plant with the (future) bloom. I've never grown Canna's before, so I'm happy. :)

When I bought it it had no tag and I had the garden buyer get it lowered to $7 because it was in bad shape. Thx so much for the id!
