I just found out a minute ago that the name is really Red Stripes. LOL. :) I didn't know that.

Red Stripes

They are very beautiful! What about tall green varigated, what would be it?

Omega, Musafolia are some. Go on Karchesky Cannas web site and they describe most of them.

I would try musafolia. It has grown up to 9-10 feet high in one season for me, even in zone 4 with lots of sun, water and fertlizer, and good soil.

I'm growing musafolia from seeds and their looking great. The omegas I'm growing from seeds are already about 3-4' tall. They are in one-gallon pots and I need to find a place to plant them.
