Canna virus is everywhere!
Industry is struggling to find virus free stock.

I can't deal with ugly plants, even if it doesn't kill them!

No treatment, no cure, easily spread...bad news!

Check any canna you buy VERY closely, especially tropicanna! They are super seseptable and the striped leaves hide it very well.

I must admit the coolest looking canna leave I had this year came from a virused tropicanna, so it's w/e, just be aware, one bad apple WILL spoil the bunch!

If you want live plants, I'd recommend briansbotanicals.net, they will be small starter plants but his hybrids are just great, they really move fast too!

My tropical garden will be without many next year, but I'll have more than enough EE and banana trees to make up for it!
Please tree mail me for trades, I'm ALWAYS actively looking for more new plants, and love to trade!
