canna care for winter

Question

I live on Long Island and had a canna planted in a pot. How do I store it for the winter? Do I need to cut it down, water in winter and can I keep it in my garage.
Thank you.

Yes, you will want to dig them up and cut them down. Wash but don't scrub them. Here is an article with some further instruction: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/canna/storing-canna-bulbs.htm
