Hi ROX,

Yes, they are "Black Magic", and I'd love to put one in a large tub with a tall canna for a tropical look at our lake beach for the summer. In the fall, I would dig them up as you propose and let the foliage die back and save the corm to start again next spring. I just hope the deer don't find them too tasty -- but they eat everything... The photo shows the tub last year, constantly nibbled on but had a bit of luck.

Thanks for the great advice!
