WOW!  As a fan of "black" plants, and Cannas, this is an irresistable combination.  I wonder where I can get one from?

I dont see it listed in the RHS Plantfinder 2005-2006 (thats last years book, havent bought this years one yet)

However, a gentleman in Australia who holds a National Collection of Canna is having a look at Ideas Genie at present.
I gave him the same link and he says it is one coming up for release. I think he might have one fairly similar to it.
Perhaps he will drop by and tell us more.
