Before the start of the war, the leader of an aggressive tribe threw the peace treaty into the fire, and take the treaty and grow from the ashes with scarlet cannes, whose inflorescences on the one hand look like fluttering flames, and on the other - like papyrus swaying in the wind, covered with blood. According to literary sources, canna was brought to Europe from the Antilles in 1570 by Portuguese navigators. Until the middle of the 1889th century, this ornamental plant was used as a deciduous plant, and only in XNUMX the gardener Crozy in Lyon brought out the first flowers, a variety of which was named after his wife, Madame Crozy.
