[GWL]: Growing Tropicals Out Of Zone


Robert,

HI.  The package came today, thank you!  Did you have any written notes
from the lecture that would tell a bit about the slides?

Where can I find seeds of Popcorn Senna and Dalechampia discoraefolia?

Also, to what zone will the various plants in the slides grow?

Being a zone 5a, I don't know of any tropicals that will withstand the
cold here.  I do have a Musa that is supposed to be hardy here but I am
keeping it inside until it pups.

I have spoke with someone who told me that by planting the plant two to
three inches deeper than normal the plant would overwinter ok as long as
it was a zone 6 or 7.  What do you know about this?

Another person suggested using heating cables around the roots and then
enclosing it in a cold frame, what is your opinion on this?

Thanks!
Sheri
