Saw this ornamental in a cultivated garden in Thane, Maharashtra in December 2016.
Any idea as to its ID?


there are two possibilities
1) Heliconia indica rubra
2) Red banana plant (Musca zebrina), blood banana, Red banana
But I go with  Red banana


May be Canna sp.


Not sure difficult to identify from leaves, could be some Heliconia species (might be Heliconia metallica Planch. & Linden ex Hook.) but not sure.


Appears to be Heliconia stricta ‘sharonii’ as per the following:
