Has anyone else grown these before? They are a wild species of canna from belize that I grew from seed. They are supposed to be a very large plant, growing up to 16 feet tall (Probably 10 to 12 here), with unusually long leaves that get about 3 feet in length. The 2 month old plant in the pic is about 1 foot tall, and has a 1 3/4 foot leaf, longer than the plant is tall, looks more like a banana or heliconia than a canna.
