beautiful cannas! i'm in the process of making a section of my yard with many types of cannas because they grow so easy here. (as long as i stay on top of the bugs) what's the difference between bengal tiger and stripped beauty?

On the leaves, Bengal Tiger has some red...I've seen some folks whose Bengal Tiger is almost all red...others where it is like mine and just has a red edge. Also, Bengal Tiger has a more pronounced stripe to the leaves. Since my Bengal Tiger has not opened yet, I don't know what the difference of the blooms will be, but the way I understand it, Striped Beauty has the white stripe that forms a cross and is distinctive to Striped Beauty. I'll post the pics of the blooms side by side when Bengal Tiger opens.
