Everyone told me that I would be able to leave my Cannas in the ground, but there is no sign of them growing yet. It has still been in the high 30's and 40's in the night and mostly below average day time temps too, in California, they are not in heavy soil but it has been wet in one area because of the rain and cold.

Do you think they should show signs of coming back yet. How can I check? If I dig up a Ryzhome, will it be hard or rotted looking or how could I check it for life?
