Hi,
I'm new to cannas but sooooo want to buy 10 million of them! lol So far I have Australia (6-8') and Ermine (2-3'), and I also have bids on giant & med height ones at eBay. I want to "cluster" my cannas.

I'm so confused, tho! I can't figure out where to put them around my new deck because of spacing, so I'm wondering if those of you experienced with these plants can help me out?

As you're looking at my deck in the pic, I have the area in front (between the ramp & front of the deck) that's about 8'x2'. The other area I'm considering is on the right side of the deck (as you look at it, between the deck & the fence) about 12'x3'.

I'd really appreciate your opinions. Thanks!!
