Hello,
I have had an unnamed Caryopteris in my garden for a few years now that was give to me as a gift. The last few winters have been mild so it has not received much of a test here. Anyway, I like it in foliage and bloom enough to want more... so I ordered C. Longwood Blue and the C. Worchester Gold. First is rated zone 4, the second, zone 5. How hardy to you find them to be in your gardens? How much sun or shade do you give yours and how do they perform? I am particularly interested in the how much sun or shade part.
Thinking of placing the Eupatorum Chocolate next to the Worchester Gold... too much?
