Has this plant made it thru a winter in zone 4? I'm in MT, 4b... Hoping mine makes it but seems unlikely. Any advice??

@rennezoe I just got this plant this year and it only blooms one or two flowers at a time:( I have been very disappointed it's on the south side of the house, full sun! I'm a little skeptical if it's going to make it through winter from what I've read and heard but I will keep you posted

It's a zone 5-8 plant, I highly doubt it will survive in zone 4 for the winter unless you bring it in??

@littlelisa check out the pics on my feed... It getting full sun in a South West corner and it only had 1-2 flowers. Moved to to the east facing bed and it's doubled in size in a few weeks and covered in blooms daily. I think it was getting too much sun!

@rennezoe I brought this plant into the house it is non-toxic two animals and it is flourishing in my kitchen!! I hope I get some blooms this winter, because I know it is not Hardy in zone 4

Oohhhh... Good luck! I brought mine in as well but it immediately dropped a ton of leaves so I gave up. Mostly because my vacuum quit at about the same time

@rennezoe sorry for being late to your post, my plant wasn't doing well in the house, I think I over watered it & lack of light:(

Does anyone know if these are Hardy for Zone 4 and why can't I get it to bloom? It's on the south side of the home in full sun
