They are bomb proof. Chuck it in anywhere. But sunshine and well draining for a better show.

Hallo Rosebud , Looking at where you are , I think I would pot these up over winter  and give some protection against the frost . I,m in Cornwall and I always throw an old sack over mine if we get a severe cold weather warning . They are quite tough once established ..but I think that you'd be better planting this out in the spring .  Debbie  :coffee2:
