I`m waiting...

OK...this is just too much.

Cleopatra is about to bloom! I can`t wait.... oh yes,I can. I have to. :)

OOOO... that is a nice one withlots of color in the foliage... I am a foiliage nut. I think that bloom is going to be amazing with the colors too. Congratulations.

My Cleo just had one stripe of color on one leaf last year... now she has been in the atrium all winter and is larger but not a single bit of color anywhere except green! I hope she gets her colors back.. anyone know why or if there is hope?

I think you have keep an eye on the new growth. You remove anything solid green or solid red to encourage(and hope for) the divided color foilage to continue growing out. Don`t over divide. Just let it grow and see what happens.

Time for update. This is first little bloom. Can you tell I`m being a little impatient? ha :)

Further out. Ya`ll have good day!

Beautiful! If you'd ever like to do a trade, I'd love one, and have several different types of canna. My Cleo has not shown any variegation in the leaves.:(

Thanks. :)

What are those red flowers on the Fence ? Paul

looks like a climbing rose ??

Hi, Yes, it is a climbing rose. :)

Red Cascade on the fence?

It is Scarlet Meidiland(sp?) It has bloomed out. I`ll update another picture so you can see it in full bloom.

Here are my three climbing roses Scarlet Meidiland on the fence. This is my favorite care free rose. It is good company for the cannas but the thorns aren`t always nice to them.
