Does anyone grow this species in the ground in a cold
climate? I know it has a weedy reputation, but after seeing it
blooming lushly on the Oregon Coast last spring, I finally placed an
order for this fall.
After checking a few references, it is given as hardy to
Zones 9/10 and suited to humusy shade. I tend to doubt all this.
So please Robert and others give us more experience with this
charming weed. Is it hopeless here in Zone 5?
Not too late to cancel my order. Thanks Jim W.
