My first canna seedling from a cross

Baton Rouge area, LA(Zone 8b)

I`m very pleased to share a new seedling. In the picture the pod parent is on the left and the result of crossing with the Ermine white canna is on the right. I think the way it shows the color of one parent and the larger petals of the other white parent is kind of neat. :)

How long does it take for the plant to reach flowering stage? I love the bigger size petals. Congratulations!

I like the seedling much better than the pod parent, nice job.

It takes about 3 months from seed to flower. :)

I thought it would take longer. Will definitely give it a try.
