Canna x ehemanii
12th August 2007
This will be my third stock of Canna x ehemanii - virus problems in Canna have reached disgraceful levels - but I am hoping this one is clean.

This was photographed at Wisley. The RHS' usual advice with regard to virus in plants is to burn the stock and start again, but problems with Canna have become so serious
that in many cases virus free stock no longer exists. Unfortunately, in the face of a serious problem, the RHS has responded by shrugging its shoulders and advising us to
"live with it!" which is rather unfortunate.

Newly planted along the front hedge, where I am hoping it will amaze passers-by for many years!
