Thanks for the advice. I think I'll try some in front of the windows and
some cut off and dried as suggested. If they don't work at least I gave it
a shot! Will report on success next Spring!

Need some advice on what to do with Cannas, taro and umbrella palms over
the Winter. Last year I brought them inside and put them near windows or
under track lighting in my indoor pond. When I put them back outside they
flourished to say the least. I have about 8 blooming cannas, 7 umbrella
palms some of which are 4-5 feet tall and two very sturdy pots of taro.
Some of these should probably be split again. Problem is I don't have
enough windows to house all these plants and keep them healthy over the NJ
Winter. They certainly can't stay outside and I don't know what else to do
with them.

Any suggestions from this crowd?

Thanks,
