Canna Queen Charlotte

Canna Queen Charlotte also known as Reine Charlotte has enormous, compact blooming spikes that bloom above the leaves, which is a characteristic of a perfectly formed canna. Queen Charlotte is a very old french cultivar and was imported into Australia in 1899.

At the start, the Queen Charlotte blossoms in vivid red and canary yellow flowers. Each spike is packed with many blooms and reminds me of the shape of a feather duster. Over time, the dazzling golden border progressively turns lighter yellow and eventually milky white with age. The medium sized canna has foliage whose colours are apple green.
