This was given to me by an elderly lady. The foliage is lush purple-red, and the flowers are unlike most other cannas I've seen. The flowers are very spiky, not soft or full, and a true coral color, not red or orange. Very little to the flowers at all.
Beautiful Canna! I don't know the name of yours but it does remind me of Bengal Tiger. Love the foliage.
Thank you! It is really prettier in person, appears a much darker "purple" to the leaves. The flower head is stumping me though. All my other cannas have full, almost Iris looking blossom heads and these are odd and somewhat disappointing...just a few tiny little spikes. But thats okay, the gorgeous foliage makes up for the tiny flower, LOL!
Known as Red Stripe, and Russian Red.
