Here is a canna for folks who don't like cannas...and for those that do! From the Bellevue Border guys Glenn and Charles, via Pam Harper's garden comes this species canna with glaucus grey green narrow leaves, that are topped all summer with lovely buttery yellow flowers...not as abrasive as some of the large flowered hybrids, but quite lovely. This vigorous spreader for the border may need to be contained in good soils...a nice problem!
