Bill,
I agree that "Sissinghurst Pink" won't survive Zone 6 even with protection. A
variety called "Toronto" survived the "El Nino" winter a few years ago, but
that's about how much luck I have. Wayside claimed that SP was hardy to Zone
5.
The new "Tortuga White" verbena is outstanding, huge flower heads. The red
Tortuga is a weaker grower, seems to have too much V. peruviana parentage.
BTW my imitation curry plant (some species of helichrysum) came back. Rather
surprised since its rated Zone 8.
