Default Cannas - overwintering

Introduce them slowly so they do not drown. They will die back over
winter. We have had them do nicely in the ground. Never tried the pond
for them.

I am trying cannas in my pond for the first time. I have read they are
hardy to Zone 7. Since I heat my pond to keep it from freezing (I am in
zone 5) and Zone 7 is down to 10 degrees F, it seems to me that I
should be able to leave them in the pond over the winter. Any comments?
