Comments:  Canna Lily Glauca 'Panache' is an exotic looking dwarf tropical perennial that is very easy to grow as it only needs 6 hours of sunshine and it multiplies fast. Remove spent flowers to promote new growth.  This charming canna also grows well as an aquatic.  Originally brought here by California sea captain Commander Bauman and was spotted by Herb Kelly, a plantsman.
