Seeds and Pod...Canna Tropicanna

Ahh thats what they look like Lori. Someone on another forum asked me for seeds from my Tropicanna and i wasn't sure how..I do now, Thanks..

Wonderful. I was wondering the same thing. :-)

The canna you sent me produced seeds which I am going to try and grow.

Youngdaisy and GreenT: Glad to be of help! Great, Gillian, we'll have to compare notes!

3 seeds per pod? Is that right?

that's what mine had... the pods will dry and wither on the stalk and the seeds fall like rain if you disturb the plants! Think you might try using them for jewellery?

Only just found this very helpful message....thanks Lori..

most welcome Motinot... have since done some looking and found that the seeds are used to make jewellery...they are very hard...black and a lovely shape...we had our first killing frost last night and my cannas are all droopy...will have to dig them soon as we are expecting five days of below zero temps.
