Ian Cooke, The Gardeners Guide to Growing Cannas
(T) This opulent cultivar has large, rich salmon-pink, gladiolus-like flowers. The plant is of great stature with substantial, broad and slightly glaucous leaves. Raised by P. Schmidt. This is not the same as ‘
Pfitzer’s Chinese Coral’, which is more compact and a brighter pink. Inevitably there is some confusion here, as many stocks exist under this name.
