Canna – Not A Winter Plant
Q: I have a question about when to transplant canna. I would like to move mine but I’m not sure when to do it.
A: Canna is not always winter hardy outdoors in the Atlanta area. This winter will test them sorely. I’d wait until the leaf tips emerge through the soil in April. You can dig up the survivors and put them wherever it suits you.
