I’m always fascinated by the different stages of budding, flowering and seeding. I think this stage of my canna lilies is beautiful––both the subtle pastel greens and rose and the nubby seed receptacles that look like one of those soft rubber nubby squeeze balls they sell as kids’ toys or relaxing aids for adults.

Do you save the seeds? I used to save the seeds for the next year’s garden. It made me feel very horticultural 🙂

They just bloom year round here.. off and on. I never have to replant.
