Dear all,
Living in zone 8-9, I am o refrence on hardiness.  But I  resow many of the
cultivars/species with varying results:
Alberto Castillo:  mostly true   (with some interesting light bleu forms)
Chorlotte Bishop: only 25%   is pink
Froyle Mill: 90% true
Rolf Fiedler: 100% true and  also multiply rapidly by stolons. Jim in sandy
soil it is potentially "weedy" worth a try in  colder climates.

Greetings
