Sage advice from one of the masters. I had the hardiness problem when I
used Tom Craig rebloomers (San Diego area). They seemed to do all right in Texas, but when I
moved to Mississippi, sensitivity to cold showed them to be quite
tender. I think this goes for rebloomers bred in coastal areas.
Those bred farther inland (Melrose - Stockton) seem to be less
tender.
