I was thinking about getting one but we are just beyond their northern range so I know our cold weather will hit it. It will probably come back from the roots but I was thinking maybe I could just grow it in a pot & move it indoors over the winter. Don't know.... have to think about it. I made a rule to never try to zone jump again. They need a fair amount of water which is the other problem for me putting it in ground so there's another thing to consider.
