I've seen some Zone 5 and 6 plants thrive in 4, but I don't think I've seen
any zoned for 7.

Centranthus - should not be a problem if mulched well with dry mulch,
Kirrengeshoma I have grown for five years and the plants have become very
large- it's more like a shrub when grown well. I have used NO protection at
all for it the last few years. Just the snow.
