I live in Youngstown,Ohio and i just bought one of these plants from homedepo. it says it can live outside in the in mild winters- it then says to bring inside during the winter?? hmm i need to know if it would survive the winter if i let it outside in the ground and cut it back and applied mulch.... it says zones 8-10 - which i think i'm 6 or 7? makes me wonder about the other canna's plants i just bought from columbus- green one and a midnight one. now i did see some planted in a yard near my house and there is alot of them and it doesn't look like they dig them up and bring them inside in the winter? one thing with columbus since they are growing everywhere the weather there is alot warmer then here and mild winters. anyyone have any thoughts for me?? thanks
 
Hi

I don't know too much about canna but I do know they are grown here in Virginia (zone 7). I see them all the time planted in yards and in the medians on some streets so they must be able to survive pretty cold temps (it can get as low as single digits here sometimes). I know no one is digging the median ones up and replanting them.

You might get more response in the Miscellaneous Plants forum so I will move this topic over there.

*POOF*
