I'm at a loss - I have good soil, we've had lots of rain - but, my cannas (bought from recent co-op) are doing almost nothing. they're about a foot tall, two leaves, which seems pretty sad after almost 2 months.

Can any experts offer some suggestions - is the issue fertilization? And what would you recommend. I'm somewhat frustrated, spent a fair amount of money, dedicated space, and almost nothing. I don't want to give up on them, especially since I will desperately need some color in August and later, but I am losing a bit of faith.

Or am I just too impatient?

Thanks in advance,
Sandra
