I dig them in November or December depending on the weather and my physical condition. This year was later as I was recovering from a back muscle strain. They go back out usually in May; sometimes a tad earlier. I actually never got to dig up some of my ee's and cannas this year. We'll see how they do without any mulch....gulp.
