Canna-bilizing the backyard

I forgot to mention that my buddy Benae gave me oodles of canna for the backyard. I remembered her mentioning like a year ago that she wanted to get rid of her lush canna patch in the front yard. Now, I've got 120 feet of fence line where I can't plant anything permanent until I know for sure the bamboo is gone. Canna sit practically on top of the ground. They don't really mind being moved. Canna grow like crazy without any fuss. Enter the Greedy Gardener. I emailed that girl, innocently mentioning her canna and offering to pay for what I took instead of having to buy any. Benae gallantly said "come n' get it!" And so I did. I came home with buckets of canna. Buckets and buckets. Apparently nobody had EVER divided these puppies. I've probably planted 200 pieces of rhizome, and there's more to go. It's crazy, but it sure is gonna fill up that fence. With orange canna. I sprinkled in some of my existing ones, which are red and yellow with orange spots. Hopefully it'll be...zingy. In a tastefully tropical way. Benae's happy. I'm happy. What's not to like?
