Thanks for the ideas.... I've got mine out of the ground now, but I only had two clumps, since they were only newly planted this year. One started as a small plant I bought, (and spread quickly!) and another I grew from a rhizome in a bag. It also spread. They both came out well, but in one big clump. I've got both clumps sitting in my garage. Should I be trying to split them up into smaller pieces, or just leave them as is and replant that way next year? I did cut the cannas off at ground level before I dug them up....and what I have now are what looks like huge banana corms, with short stalks coming from the top. I had read before digging them up it's best to let them see some mild freezes....so they did, and the foliage was starting to die back.

I sure miss them....it's amazing what those cannas did for the spot where they were growing! But, I'm hoping they will be back next year! Better than this year!
