Ooh, too bad you didn't get a picture, Christie! Did you get any plants at the estate sale?

Debra, you could hedge your bets on the cannas. Wait until they all die back from the cold, then just bring in a piece or two of each plant as insurance, leave the rest in place, bury and mulch 'em like crazy! If you lose the ones outside, you still have starts for next year, and if you don't . . . well, you'll have lots to share. Plus, as Kay says lots of us have cannas to share with you.

Your indoor garden is great, but what a lotta work, kiddo! Give yourself a break, and as Alice says, let the things that will go dormant have a sleep!
