One of the oldest cannas was raised in 1848 it is called Annei this was the first canna to be hybridized, Annei is a hybrid from the species Glauca and I’m glad to have them both growing in my garden. Some other heirloom types that were popular in their day were the plants raised and known as the Antoine Crozy Cannas.

Often these summer flowering plants are found for sale under the name cannas x generalis.

Sometimes they are also called canna lilies, these heritage plants can still be found growing in old gardens, some are also suitable as pond plants, yet these exotic plants also take the dry and are tough water wise plants and have stood the test of time here in Victoria and abroad. As tough as these plants are they dont flower in winter.
