Cannas can now be started into growth by potting up the dormant rhizomes in a light position.
Inspect stored tubers of plants such as Dahlia and Canna for signs of drying out: do not let them become bone dry.
Cannas and dahlias are lifted after the foliage has been blackened by frost: Cut back the stems before lifting.
Care for your dahlias and cannas: Wait for first frosts before lifting the tubers or rhizomes.
The danger of frost should have passed in June: time to plant out cannas and dahlias.
Dahlias, Gladiolas, Begonias, Lilies, Cannas and other summer flowering bulbs can be planted in May.
