we have hardy species here in Alaska.  

I have a large clump growing in a pot that I set in the garden to 
reseed a new spot (from the seeds pods growing in the pot) and 
forgot to tuck it in for the winter.  It survived just fine above 
ground.  I do have to admit we had an unusually warm and odd winter.

Accoding to Hulten's 'Flora of Alaska and Neighboring Teritories" we 
have a small populating of Sisyrinchium montanum near Mount St. 
Elias (on the Canadian border in northern Southeast Alaska.)

we have a quite a bit more of S. litorale spread through all of 
southcentral and southeast Alaska.

I do not know which one I have since I have not taken the time to 
really look that close.

I got it from a friend that dug it out of her small "lawn" of mowed 
wildflowers that keep reseeding from her raised rock-garden type 
beds.
