Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Canna hybrida named MNImar characterized by the novelty of multiple inter-veinal striped yellow-green foliage with compact, large pink flowers that complement the foliage and shed quickly after they are spent, and dwarf growth habit. The combination of these characteristics on a single plant make MNImar a worthy new introduction well suited for the garden or container.
