The Dingee and Conard Co of Chester County, Pennsylvania, USA raised the Canna Flamingo.
Here in Australia one of the earliest canna breeders that I found was Maurice William Holtze of Adelaide, research reveals Australia's first cannas were raised by him, he raised some magnificent exotic plants in 1902 and 1903. Another Australian hybridizing these tropical plants before 1925 was Colonel J. W. B. Field of Casterton in Victoria.
