Hi guys,

   I'm going through some catalogs and considering Begonia grandis 'Alba'
   as a compliment to the straight species.

   Most references seem to list it as zone 7, yet many also list the 
   straight species as a zone 7 plant too.  Since I'm in zone 5b USDA
   I'm now confused as to whether or not 'Alba' will grow here.

   Anyone have any experience?  Will B. grandis 'Alba' survive here?

Chris
