60 degree soil? That seems to be a little high, as long as you are not getting freezes, they should be fine. They are planted rather shallow so if you are planting in a sunny spot, the sun will warm the soil very quickly. My cannas are about a foot tall now. We got down to 34 night before last and the cannas did not even notice... I am sure it was a very short time. Temps here in the day are very hot already.. 80's and up to 92 one day.. going to be in the 90's next week. Here is a pic of my canna bed last year.. it is the front corner of my back yard.
