I didn't think they were hardy enough to overwinter....it would be nice if they did. Do you grow them as perennials were you are? Short-lived perennials. They especially like dry sunny banks where they bake in the summer. At this time of year, their native haunts in California are not (100F and up) and dry as a bone. Give them hard living and they will overwinter better than if gorged on water and fertilizer. -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada |
