Lily – Storing Over Winter
Q: I have just received an order of canna lily roots in plastic bags. How do I keep them over the winter?
A: If you leave the roots in the bags, they will rot. Take them out of the bags and put the roots into a box filled with crumpled newspaper. Store in a cool closet. Plant outdoors in mid-April.
