So far four different kinds of Cannas in my garden are setting seeds. Since these are hybrids, they won't come true from seeds but will produce a plant that has similar genetics to their parents. You all are welcome to try any you like.

Indica "Indian Shot" is a prolific seed-producer and has a red plume of blooms on top of 6-8' tall plants. Hardy in Zones 6 - 11. You should see the waves of these planted in the mediums down I-40 near Raleigh. Mine are planted closest to the garage since they're the tallest ones I have and were only covered with a thin 2" layer of mulch last Fall. It got cold quick and I got too lazy to finish the job. So this is one tough plant.
