Hole 11 At Handara

Hole 11 – “Canna” (Bunga Tasbih in Indonesian)

A wonderful stand of red Canna plants wrap around the front of the tee box. The Canna is a large-flowered brightly coloured garden plant. The flowers are typically red, orange or yellow and any combination of those – they attract pollinators collecting nectar and pollen. The broad, flat, alternate leaves that are such a feature of this plant, grow out of the stem in a long, narrow roll and then unfurl. Canna is also an agricultural plant as it is one of the World’s richest sources of starch which accumulates in the swollen underground stem.

Your tee shot will pass through the gateway of Flame of the Forest trees to reach the deep green which is fairly narrow at the front and widens to the back. There is O.B. on the left. The green is well guarded by a deep bunker front left and a bunker front right. The green slopes moderately from right to left and slightly from back to front.

Pro’s Tip – you will need an accurate tee shot and deft putting to secure your par here. Being short is better than being long.
