My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Cut Cannas

20 years ago

Hi! I'm thinking about ordering Cannas from Horn, but have a question first. I read that they do not make good cut flowers... BUT, exactly how long do they survive in a vase. Do they last at least two days? or three? or even one?

Also, the dwarf varities say they grow three feet. Does that mean the flower has a three foot stem?
