[miniaturerockgardens] Wonderful viola

From: Diana Pederson <enabling@netzero.net>

Hi:

Is everyone making troughs.  I sure wish I could figure out
how to publicize this list a bit more and get some
conversations going.

Yessterday I found a wonderful miniature viola called Viola
verecunda var yakusimana.  Has anyone here grown it in a
trough as suggested by the nursery owner?  If so, did it
become much of a problem.  I think I'll put it in a trough
with the few miniature hostas that managed to survive this
past winter.

Let's start a conversation about the "hardiest" plants for
troughs in cold regions.  We'll assume the person with the
trough is unable to move it to a protected spot for the
winter.  (This happened to me last fall--I didn't have
anyone around who could be asked to move it for me!).  What
are your experiences with troughs just left sitting in the
garden for the winter?
