This is a magnificient Australian bred canna!
Canna 'Camille Bernardin' is one of the older Australian varieties and is now more difficult to obtain. Year and hybridizer??
The blooms are of a style that opens out quite wide. They are a most gorgeous orange with deep apricot toning. Very "showy" flowers!
The leaves are green with a blue patina, are quite wide, and make a grand garden statement.
It is quite a prolific canna and grows to around 6ft (1.9m) tall.
