Here is an example of a mix of a yellow-toned green and a blue-toned green. A line of red cannas breaks up the two tones. The deep purple maroon of the leaves complement the blue-toned green in the background, and the bright orange flowers complement the yellow-toned green in the foreground.

Red-leaf cannas are striking in the garden and easily can bridge plants that clash with each other.

Divide perennials. Every year or two, it's a good practice to dig up and divide certain perennials, like cannas, daylilies, bearded irises, wood ferns, violets and Shasta daisies. These types of plants develop large clumps or bulbs, and dividing them is a healthy practice that allows them more breathing room. To divide a plant:• Dig up the plant, being careful to get as much of the roots as possible.• Gently separate the roots or bulbs, using a hand tool if necessary before replanting your "extra" plants into other parts of your garden.• Water thoroughly and lightly mulch to protect these new plants and get them off to a good start.
