Other containers-- to the right there is another canna which sent out its first bloom, this one is yellow with speckles. These cannas are also hardy here (zone 7b). At the end of the growing season, I simply cut the talks stalks down to the soil level, turn the container upside down. Then the following spring I just turn the pots side up and resume water and fertilizer, viola. Early summer they cheerfully reward the gardener with beauty.
