Canna Cleopatra

Canna species are native to semi-tropical and tropical parts of North and South America. Their native range extends from South Carolina (Canna flaccida) south to Argentina and includes the Caribbean islands. In their native habitat, Canna live in damp shady locations along the margins of rivers and lakes. Canna are valuable as a food source in certain cultures because their rhizomes contain a high quality starch. The primary species used for food production is Canna indica. The starch (commonly called achira) is used in Vietnam to make high quality "cellophane" noodles. In the modern era of agriculture, canna is only rarely used as a primary food source, as it has been replaced by more nutritious and higher yielding crops such as potatoes and corn. Canna have been cultivated as a food crop for over 4000 years in Central and South America.

admin — Wed, 23 Feb 2022 19:25:13 +0000

Growing Olive Trees in Containers is a great way to keep olive trees! Even the smallest garden or balcony can accommodate a pot grown olive tree. The ability to place your plant in the best possible location regardless of soil conditions is perhaps the greatest advantage of pot growing. An olive tree needs the sunniest spot available in your balcony. It can cope with a bit of shade but too much and your tree will start to degrade. Similarly, it will tolerate a breezy site but it will not thrive if exposed to constant northerly or easterly winds. Pot Size: 45 cm Height : 220 cm

The banana tree is a beautiful architectural plant with huge, green, paddle-like leaves. It produces creamy yellow flowers in summer, which is often followed by yellowish-green fruit. These are not edible, however, the plants look brilliant when incorporated into a jungle-style planting scheme, and can be potted up into large pots and treated as a dynamic feature in the Home or Garden.

The tops may die out but they will regrow in the spring once the temperatures warm up. Plants in containers should be brought inside for the winter. Banana trees do not do well in drought conditions since they need to be watered often for proper growth. They should also be fertilised several times throughout the year.
