Belacanda – Pardancanda & Iris

Heidi Brosseau, our retail manager has selected these as our featured perennials this week and offers the following:

‘Once upon a time, long,long ago in the late 1960′s there lived a beautiful plant named Belamcanda.   Belamcanda was 18″-24″ tall with brilliant golden to orange star flowers and long sword like leaves.  One day a Mr. Sam Norris introduced Belamcanda to a handsome plant named Pardanthopsis.  Pardanthopsis was a cousin of the Iris family.  It wasn’t long before Belamcanda & Pardanthopsis fell in love and started a family of their own.  They named their newest family member Pardancanda.  Pardancanda was very attractive, growing to 36″ tall and producing a kaleidoscope of patterns and colors in its star-like flowers.  They all lived happily ever after in full sun and moist but well-drained soil!’
