To grow Sino-sibs is easier than Calsibes if there is sufficient
moisture. Before some years I have grown lot of Sino-sibs and they did
well here in zone 5 (winter). In summer there is less warmth than in
USA zone 5, but for sino-sibs there was quite sufficient. Almost at that
time when I was growing Sino-sibs I did attemt to grow calsibes. I had
three, dont remember names, but they did poor and I have no seen what
they are like. Perhaps by chance I will try to grow calsibes of German
breeder Tomas Tamberg. They can be best addopted to climatic conditions
like ours.
