Wheeler Park Community Gardens

Master Gardener  Jan, received Canna South Pacific Scarlet F1 (Canna generalis) seeds from All American Selections . 

Jan started the plants indoors and transplanted them at the Wheeler gardens, assuming they would all produce red flowers. Surprised was she to find a few of them blossomed in a beautiful complementary yellow. 

See the Canna display below or visit the Wheeler gardens on Dorset St., South Burlington, VT. The park is open to the public for viewing, free of charge. 


The Canna display is one of many species of flowers on display along with the community vegetable gardens.

Notice the cone shaped of one of the flowers.

 Bernie publishes short stories and photos reflecting Vermont values of Green and Clean and Community.
