I recently returned home from a trip to the New Jersey shore (wonderful
Italian wedding---the food was great) and certainly was happy to find my
Canna garden had FINALLY started to bloom. Here in zone 6 we are
required to dig and store tubers to get reliable results. I put the
tubers back into the ground very early this year and still it seems to
take forever to get blossoms. Do any of you know of a way to speed up
the process? I have considered putting old glass storm windows over the
bed in the early spring--it might not look so pretty but just might warm
the soil a little sooner.
also beginning to bloom now are:
Black eye susan-Rudbeckia
cone flower-Echenaacea
pink and yellow coreopsis
liatris
obedient-virginiana
phlox
stokesia-cimpositae
