Reminds me of an iris bed that I dug out a few years ago back in Wes Ginny... I took the whole bunch of them and just threw 'um accross the road into the woods... No planting... They just lais there on op opf the leaves...
Well, you know the restr of the story... Yup, they rooted themselves and if you were to go back there today there's about a 10 foot round patch of very healthy irisis...
As for the worms in the cannas I'm not too sure what will kill them but it's the larve I suspect developes during your winters... We did ours up and store them in peat moss inside the barn where the larve doesn't have an environment to live...
But I'll ask the P-Vine if she has anything that is organic that will kill the worms...
