How hardy is this one Andrew?

DD - the RHS Book says frost hardy (down to -5C), but it's come through this past winter (it was planted last autumn). But they require water during the growing season, and relatively dry during winter, so placing them can be tricky. Too much wet in the winter, and they rot off.
Plantaholic grows them successfully in pots

It is such a striking plant, pot grown is safe rather expensive are they not, looking to my right of this page......
