Separate names with a comma.
Absolutely. My point is that for some people it's worth it to put a little more effort into protecting certain species of plants just for the...
And that doesn't mean it's not worth trying. If it gets smoked by a cold winter, I'd just buy another one and enjoy it for however long it lasts....
RonB, four winters on and still going strong with no protection, despite -10C temperatures.
I know of one other person in Surrey growing them but there are several others throughout the PNW who have succesfully grown them. If you look at...
