Canna indica, commonly known as Indian shot,[2] African arrowroot, edible canna, purple arrowroot, Sierra Leone arrowroot,[3] is a plant species in the family Cannaceae. It is native to much of South America, Central America, the West Indies, and Mexico. It is also naturalized in the southeastern United States (Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and South Carolina), and much of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, and Oceania.[3]

It (achira in Hispanic America,[3] cana-da-índia in Brazil) has been a minor food crop cultivated by indigenous peoples of the Americas for thousands of years.[4][5]
