I am not sure whether this is a Dwarf Banana or a Philodendron. Can someone please help to identify this plant?

It's definitely not a Philodendron but either Musa (Banana) or Canna. I vote a variety of Cannas (Canna)

That's what I was thinking, a dwarf variety of canna lily.

So either Canna or Dwarf Banana, thank you so far. Would a more detailed picture of the leaf or the stem help to further determine what it is? The plant is now about 15 inches high.

Canna. Definitely dwarf if that's a flower bud.

Definitely a Canna, and it's about to bloom. Not a Banana (Musa sp)

I think its a Canna that's about to bloom.

Thanks so much! I admit, I was hoping for sweet treat

Instead if you have any hummers around, they'll get the sweet treat! My hummingbirds love the cannas here.

Definitely Canna and you will soon be seeing a pretty flower!

There are a few different species of Canna and hundreds of cultivars so you may not be able to narrow it down to an exact name but it's definitely a Canna. Our database has 6 pages full of lovely Canna photos: https://garden.org/plants/brow...
