You will find the seeds where the flowers used to be. In the picture you see green immature seed pods on the right. On the left you see brown mature seed pods. The seeds inside will be very dark brown to black, about the size of a large pea or small marble.

Also note that not all canna will produce seeds. Bengal Tiger is a good example. The seed pods will grow but not produce any viable seed. A lot of hybrids are like this. I'd also like to stress again that it is very unlikely that the plant from a seed will look like the parent.
