'Stuttgart' and others woes

I'm just not doing very well with my cannas this year. Stuttgart has constantly had burnt brown edges so I moved the 3 pots into the shade of the greenhouse...then I saw a show about water feature where there was a "Stuttgart" planted at the very edge of a pond so I thought"Ah-ha!Maybe it needs more water" so I started watering them more and one pot promptly rotted! GRRR!!!! I't just not my year of the canna. "Pink Staburst" came up but didn't put on a very good show. "Cleoptra" didn't stripe up very good,"Lucifer" and"Wyoming"haven't bloomed at all but "Tropicana" has done well. "Bengal Tiger" was doing well until the stoopid perennial pink peavine sprung up under it,climbed to the tippy top and coverd it up so now I'm pulling and yanking peavine like crazy and ripping leaves off "BT" while doing it. "Semaphore" recently aquired via trade,the %*@! armadillas dug up and I didn't notice until it was a dried up little...tur....um...thing.....ARGH!!
