hello, first time posting here and certainly not the last.

i've looked through the database and google and am having difficulty pinpointing what kind of cannas these are.

zone 6/7, we've transported them by seed from one home to another and this year, after planting, they came up to about ten feet. some red, some orange. not huge flowers, not overly showy.

could someone ID or point me in the right direction?

thank you so much in advance!
