In some of the places I've lived I've used the gray water to not only

water
my flower beds, but even my lawns and no matter what I had in the water,

it
gets so deluted between the two cycles that it didn't bother anything. And
as that one user says, her canna ( what color? get seeds? ) love the

water.

Old fashioned Indian shot canna (green leaves, gets up to 15 foot high with
red flowers, seeds are hard enough to be fired outa a muzzle loader rifle.,
which they did back in the Civil war days) and Bengal Tiger or Praetoria
that has adjusted to my zone. Alas the Tropicanna Canna said screw you this
winter and never returned but provided some nice humusy remains to feed my
two large babies. Holler at me and I'll send you current pictures.......I'm
tempted to plant another hardy canna there just for contrast. A dark leaf
variety that has a red flower.............digging in that muck is
interesting. And I dig canna's double shovel deep.
maddie (if I get seeds, I'll holler)
