WV Girl,

My first year with these too. I chopped down the EE's and threw the tubers and roots in a paper bag for a few days, trimmed them down a little, and waited a week. I pulled off the green again, trimmed off the roots, and waited again. Then I broke them up into beautiful (not to mention many new), dry, and compact tubers ready to store for the winter (or give to friends). Just give it some time and make sure you keep them dry (feel free to trim or pull off any green/wet parts).

I'm overwintering my cannas indoors in their pots; their doing just well with southern exposure and kicking out new leaves every few days. I never thought I'd keep cannas as indoor plants for the winter. Let me know how your storage of those goes (next year I may do this differently as I have way too many other plants that want their winter spots).
