Canna Lily (Canna generalis)
Description
Hybrid banana , two-part name : Canna generalis, of the Cannaceae family. This species was first described by LH Bailey & EZ Bailey in 1930. The tree has a body grows dust, large, up to 1.5m high. The leaves are green or purple. Dwarf bear the big flowers close together. Leaves, radios and petals are small, but the stamens transform into large wings that are shaped and beautifully shaped like petals. Colors can vary from yellow to dark red, from one color to another with different light blotches. Stiff and large seeds should be used in the past as a unit of gold. The root causes excitement for liver pain, fever, dialysis and diuretic. Canna (or canna lily, although not a true lily) is a genus of 10 species of flowering plants. The closest living relations to cannas are the other plant families of the order Zingiberales, that is the Zingiberaceae (gingers), Musaceae (bananas), Marantaceae, Heliconiaceae, Strelitziaceae, etc. Canna is the only genus in the family Cannaceae. The APG II system of 2003 assigns it to the clade commelinids, in the monocots. Plants have large foliage and horticulturists have turned it into a large-flowered garden plant. It is also used in agriculture as a rich source of starch for human and animal consumption. Although a plant of the tropics, most cultivars have been developed in temperate climates and are easy to grow in most countries of the world as long as they receive at least 6-8 hours average sunlight during the summer, and are moved to a warm location for the winter.
