    I have a bunch of canna lilies right now and was wondering how they do as cut flowers and can the leaves be used as greenery?

    Canna make lovely cut flowers and last about 1-2 weeks in vases with regular water changes. The foliage is also quite suitable for use as greenery in cut flower arrangements; quite a lot of it is sold by Ecuador to North American florists' shops. Snip away!
