When nurseries still had going out of business sales I picked up a 15

but there is nothing like it as the first flowers of spring.

I have one that I bought last year at Nature's Way in Harrisburg PA. It
survived the coldest winter they've had here in some time. (one night
was -18F) It was well-insulated in a bed of leaves right next to the
foundation of the house. It's doing pretty well this summer despite the
dryness. Only thing is it took forever to leave out, and it didn't
flower. I thought for awhile that it was dead, but it's doing great
now. I don't have it in full sun all day, just partial shade.
