Canna bulbs #791288

Asked May 17, 2022, 3:24 PM EDT

I recently acquired a fairly large amount of both Australian and green Canna bulbs. If I plant them now can I expect them to grow to a substantial height throughout this growing season or should they have been started a while ago? Any advice for planting would be additionally helpful. I have grown them in the past but I’ve always purchased them from a garden store around this time of year.

Expert Response

It's ok to start cannas indoors or plant them outdoors when danger of frost has past.  In either case the plants will flower during summer in Minnesota.
