This species is often grown indoors, which is likely to prove difficult. However, it is very frost-hardy, and all the cultivars can withstand temperatures down to about 15F (-10C) and even 5F (-15C) for the hardiest selections, like 'Kleim's Hardy'. It should thus be reliably grown in USDA zones 8 and warmer, and could be tried in the most sheltered places in USDA zones 7. [translated by Google]
