Cannas in Tulsa

5 years ago

Help! My neighbor dropped a ton of canna ribosomes off to me.

It’s mid-September, I assume it’s too late to plant in ground here (zone 7A)?

I heard that you can store them? True?

Otherwise, am I supposed to plant them in little pots and keep indoors until late spring?

Also- do they need to “dry” before planting??

Boy those are small. I’d plant them until a frost/freeze kills the tops and then dig them a week or so later when you have a couple of frost free days. Let them dry for a day or so, knock the dirt off and throw them in a box. Store them in a cool dry place until spring.

Yeah, all the growth got cut back except for the newest (as you see). Ok. Thank you!
