Angel Pink Beauty - how tall, please?

| This is a salmon colored canna with a yellow throat. I'd like to know how tall it gets. I'm planting it behind Primrose yellow, and I want to make sure I'm not making a mistake. The tag from the nursery says it will get four feet tall, but a source online says only two feet tall.
I'm in zone nine.
Thanks so much.

| The height of a particular canna variety can vary depending on conditions, but I wouldn't bet on an Angel Pink growing to four feet. I used to have one that grew to maybe two and a half feet at best. Unless the one with that nursery tag is a division of a mutation that tends to grow taller, four feet is probably an error. |

| The first question requiring an answer is if you actually have C. ‘Angel Pink’ or C. ‘Pink Beauty’. From your description, I will assume you have received ‘Angle Pink’. There is no canna cultivar named ‘Angel Pink Beauty’. ‘Angle Pink’ typically grows 2 ½ to 3’ and slightly shorter than ‘Primrose Yellow’. You may wish to plant it to the front. Regards, Kent |

| I just bought a plant yesterday labled pink Beauty Canna (Canna x Generalis 'Pink Beauty'). The grower is Southern Treasures; and this plant is definitly a dark pink, much closer to being red than salmon. The tag says 30" tall. |
