Where are you? Surely 'W of London' gets frosts! No, it can take quite hard ones - IF the summer before is long and hot enough! It's one of the plants that is hardy in Arnold Arboretum but not Kew. I had one, from seed, but it never thrived outside and eventually died. Exactly, it doesn't like the wet, and needs to harden new growth. We had one when I was a child outside of New York, where the winters are very hard, but I have been able to grow it in Normandy. -- Gardening in Lower Normandy |
