Q.Bought a pot of cannas. Should I divide and plant the bulbs now or keep them in the pot until fall?
I live in zone 6. Can I leave them in the ground over winter?

I would go ahead and plant them. They will bloom until frost. In zone 6 you will need to lift and store them. Wait till after a hard frost has killed back the foliage.
