Canna 'Anette Dalebø' is available from specialist growers; the breeding is C. 'Tangerine' x C. 'Theresa Blakey'.
A seedling from C. 'Tangerine' x C. 'Theresa Blakey' and named after the growers Bestemor (grandmother, or literally 'best mother'), which is the name we used to call our grandmothers in Norway until the 'experts' ordered us to call them 'mormor' and 'farmor' (Mother-mother and father-mother). I refused to use those awful names for MY bestemor Anette.
