Photo Hunt - Stripes
This is the leaf of a "Tropicana" Cana plant. They grow from rhizomes and are very hardy, which is a huge plus! This is one of my very favorites. I took this shot a few summers ago because of the beautiful striped leaves. This variety puts out long stems that pop with bright orange flowers. It will bloom from mid-spring 'til first frost. I just planted three different varieties: red, yellow and bright pink. Hopefully, they'll do as well as this one.
