Canna 'Annjee'
Canna ‘Annjee’ is a hybrid cultivar, and therefore doesn’t have a single “native region” in the traditional sense. However, we can infer its likely origins based on the *species* that were likely used to breed it and the *breeder’s location*.
Here’s the breakdown:
* **Genus Canna:** Cannas are native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas (primarily South America, Central America, and the Caribbean). These are the base materials for nearly all canna hybrids.
* **Cultivar Development:** The ‘Annjee’ cultivar was hybridized by **R.E.B. (Bob) Duncan**. Bob Duncan was a leading canna breeder in **Australia**.
Therefore, it’s safe to say that while the *ancestral species* of Canna ‘Annjee’ originated in the Americas, the specific hybrid cultivar itself was developed in **Australia**. You’d be most likely to find it cultivated in temperate to subtropical gardens and nurseries, particularly in regions with a warm climate where cannas thrive.
In conclusion, while the plant’s lineage traces back to the Americas, its point of origin as a unique cultivar is **Australia**.
