As it is not frost hardy you will have to re-plant every year, but if you have an area you can keep frost tender plants in the winter it roots easily from soft shoot cuttings. We shall be interested to have feed back from anyone who purchases some of these plants.

Aeshna Hope that helps
Thanks Jaki- I thought it probably was, nice to have it confirmed!
