Beautiful Canna plant

- Beautiful Leaves of Canna Plant (Canna indica)
During my everyday leaving home to work and the other way around, I have this BIG curiosity toward this beautiful flower called Canna. In Indonesia, these Flowers usually are planted in plural in gardens, sidewalks for pedestrians or as street winnow. It is also known as prayer-beads flower ( bunga tasbih in Indonesian), or sometimes as forest-ganyong.
Flower Canna (Canna indica L) is flora that assumed coming form tropical area of America. If in origins, canna colored in red, yellow and pink, now there are many new variant color, as the result of crossing beeds.
In addition the the flower, the leaf of canna is also considerable. The various color like red maroon, old green, chartreuse, and artistic motives which looks like batik. That is why, though it doesn’t have flowers, the canna nuances will be able to beautify fences too.

In an article I read, Flower Canna grows seasonal, its clump is leafy and grow in team, and bloom in rotations
