Once again my Cana flowers really grew well this summer and attracted lots of hummingbirds. I think these flowers make a great back ground to my gardens.

Of course the frost has burned them all down now, so i cut them all down with my tractor useing a rotary cutter. (brush hog) Next comes the hard part.... digging up all those bulbs! Well, i have an easier way..

I just pop them out of the ground useing the pallet forks on my tractor! It sure is a back saver, and here's how they look out of the ground!

Then i pick them up, put them pails and store them untill next spring where they won't freeze.
