Title: Canna 'lillies' in Uzumlu
Post by: Rindaloo on April 30, 2010, 11:46:36 AM

We have some to spare, if anyone would like them  :D

We have already dug up some dark red leaved ones (orange flowers) we have others and would be happy to thin them out if anyone would like some.  They are green leaved or green and yellowinsh stripey leaved with orange or yellow and orange mottled flowers.

ROFL, trouble was -we were up to our eyes regrouting pool which overlapped with son and his family staying.  So we were rather busy.  But when you're over next, we can dig up anything you fancy and deliver :D

Meanwhile -Canna Lillies, anyone?? [^]

Lynne

we would love some - we have a blank canvas of a garden, lots of space and these would be perfect...

I'm going to be cheeky and ask if you do have a car would you bring them to Fethiye; otherwise we can come and get them but Sundays is our only day off if that would suit you.

~Hi Nichola, would you like a baby cactus that will grow into one of those big grey handsome jobbies??  We can bring some of each of our Cannas.  Sunday in Fethiye would be great.  Set a time and location, but I don't do early, LOL!

Why thank you Ron!   :)  Not sure where to 'pop', but I am in no rush, LOL!!  If you have bright red canna's I would be very interested as mine are all variations on orange and yellow.

Rindi.......by the side of our wall, olive grove side...is a large amount of the most wonderful mint.  Makbule (owner) has told us to help ourselves and we have planted a few bits.  Ours probably isn't big enough to help you at the moment, but I'm sure Makbule wouldn't mind if you took a tiny bit of hers to replant - its just growing wild.
