Default Canna Heinrich Seidel/Roma

Does anyone here know if it's true that Canna Heinrich Seidel is really C.
Roma which became misattributed some years ago? Are they in fact, one and
the same? David - anyone?


This may be of interest.....

You will see that it says C. "Heinrich Seidel" is a totally different plant
and is incorrectly used as a synonym.

Indeed it says C. "Madame Crozy" is also used a a synonym but that is
crimson red with a golden edge and was a parent of C. "Roma".
