Real Seeds sell Latah, which are supposed to be very cold hardy, which I  have found to be true this year. They went out late April, and survived OK here in Wales.

I swear by Russian and Ukranian varieties if it is cold tolerance you are after.

I am growing Latah again this year. Started them of early and they went out on the plot about 3 weeks ago and the first truss are setting. They have seemed to have coped with the temperature variations well.
