Nah - the ones that failed where just as expensive as good ones.

Once established, anyway, the plants will take a great deal (they
typically have some green on them right through the New England winter,
though this year we actually have snow cover on the garden) - it's the
blossoms &/or fruit that get whacked in a frost/freeze.
