I grew something sold as that. However, it was from a garden centre which seems good at mixing up their plant identification so I don't trust any of their identifications ever. Buying from them is a bit like lucky dip!

Mine reached about 12 ft, but then flowered with a drooping head of dangling pink/purple flowers. They were very different to other cannas.

I think mine might really have been Canna Iridiflora.
