You had 500 cannas?? Wow that’s amazing! The amount of planting and maintenance you must have needed to do for those 😳 I’m truly impressed. Did you get anything truly unique to germinate? If not, I hope your next batch will give you something spectacular 🤞 good luck!

@@Garden-Oasis love the auto irrigation system with 1/4" tubing and micro sprinklers I would give them food very 2 months and trim as needed oh and talk to them. Some of the colors were lighter than the parent plants but the flowers were the same size. All of the plants were in pots so that they could be moved as needed for sun exposure. I enjoy growing them many different species of flowers, wide petals, narrow ones, large flowers, small ones, tight clusters and single ones sorry for the run on Happy Growing everyone

The process would be the same as far as the scratching of the outer coating. And if you just want to plant them without soaking first, you’d just jump to the section of this video where I plants them in pots after they had sprouted. 1/2 an inch deep, cover them, keep them watered and you’re all set. If you’re planting straight into the garden, you’d do the same thing. Scratch, 1/2 inch deep, keep watered. You’ll get some to germinate, though I wouldn’t recommend it because they really do need a lot of water at first to get going. You’d have to water that spot constantly to keep the soil moist enough.

Thank you so much! 😊 thanks for taking the time to comment

Try it and let me know if you germinate anything interesting or different. Who knows? Yours might be the next spectator chance seedling that captivates gardeners worldwide! 😊 good luck and thanks for watching

I am on my 2nd week of soaking canna seeds. 2 out of 20 so far have sprouted. I am starting to see some white discoloration with the remainder. I still prefer this method over filing any day.

@@cynthiaborden4209 that’s a bit low on the germination rate. Did you make sure to scratch them till you saw some white under the shell? I wonder why you only got two. 🤔 I’d keep soaking just to see what happens and switch to changing the water every day. Just so they don’t rot on you while you wait for the rest to sprout.

Growing cannas is so rewarding because you get so much impact for your efforts. Good luck! Check back if you have any questions 😊

You’re very welcome! 😊 let me know if you have any questions when you start to harvest them or when you try germinating them. I’ll be glad to help if I can. Good luck! 👍🍀 😊

You’re very welcome! 😊

You’re very welcome! Thanks for taking the time to comment 😊

Thank you for the suggestion! Yes,I love dahlias and I do have suggestions on how to grow and store them. I will definitely make some videos on what I personally like to do 😊 And thank you so much for the compliments 🥰

Aww thank you so much! I’m so glad. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated 🥰

Thank you! 😊…No, I’ve never seen white mature canna seeds. They are white in the green pods, when the pods first form. Then the seeds start to mature, along with the pods. The pods go from green to brown as the seeds mature to black inside them… though it’s possible I don’t know everything and there actually are white mature seeds somehow, but I’ve never seen them. Where did you get the white seeds?

@Garden-Oasis from a Lilly that had just dropped its bloom. I think if I had waited the seed pod would have turned brown/black. I've got it 2 sitting in water. Well see. Thank you for responding. A second question, do yu know where I can get presidential canna lilies? They are hard to find

@@sandrabriggs8131 yes if you’d have waited about 2-3 weeks, they’d have matured. You’ll get more chances to collect them, I’m sure 😊. A quick google search showed me 3 sellers that were the first results. Hollandbulbfarms.com, Eden brothers, and Dutchbulbs.com all have them in stock. Holland bulbs is actually having a sale on them as we speak. 😊 good luck 👍

@@Garden-Oasis Thank you again!!
