This week for #CannaTipTuesday: 4 most common mistakes when growing cannas. We love sharing helpful tips with you through the growing season. This week's tip provides information on things to avoid when planting cannas. Tips are posted weekly on our Facebook and Instagram pages.

Now is a great time to plant cannas in zones 8 and warmer, for example:

Zone 9: Arizona, Southern California, Florida, Southern Texas
Zone 8: Charlotte, NC, Atlanta, GA San Francisco, CA, Chattanooga, TN, Dallas, TX, Salem, OR, Carlsbad, NM

Up next: zone 7 gardeners can usually start planting cannas the first of April: Central Oklahoma, Northern Texas, Northern Arkansa, Western Tennessee, Virginia, Southern New Mexico, Northeast Arizona, Southeast Utah, Western Nevada Bulbs ship daily, plants will ship the first week of May!

Bulbs ship the same day if ordered by noon (CST). Regardless of where you live, feel free to order anytime; we will ship your order on your requested shipping date. Live plants are growing well in the greenhouse (shown to the right) and will be ready to ship during the first week of May.

For more information on when to plant or choosing a ship date, take a look at the planting info on our website or our helpful YouTube video (skip to 2:37).

A great resource for determining current soil temperatures in your area is this interactive map. Enter your zip code and the map will show current soil temperature in your area as well as a 5-day average and historical trends.

For those in colder zones, your time will be here soon! It is better to wait and plant when soil temperatures are consistently 60 degrees or warmer to give your cannas the best start. If you are in the northern climates and want a head start on spring growth, you can begin planting indoors in containers. Starting cannas indoors is certainly not a requirement, but we know many gardeners in Zones 6 and colder like this option. On average, cannas will bloom 90 days after planting.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend!
