FYI - the following did not survive Zone 7b, unfortunately:
Typhonium horsfieldii, kumingense, pedunculatum, adnatum, varians,
and violifolium.
T. giganteum and T. divaricatum, hardy here in North Carolina, consistently
emerging in mid-June, and both species bloom and perform very well.
We'll test a few other species and keep you al posted...Petra
