 Yes, it seems to be.  I have 3 of them outside, and they all came through
 last winter unscathed - we had temperatures of -8C, which is as low as we
 have recorded since we have been here (8 years). It is a totally deciduous
 plant.

 Other varieties growing outside either here or nearby include A. praecox and
 A. campanulatus.  I have no experience of others outside, but I have a few
 more from seed which will be going out next spring.  Also, I see that A.
 dyeri grows outside OK at Kew according to Phillips & Rix..

 Hope this helps
 Ian
