Mmm interesting ! are they hard to grow Ph , do you need to keep them in a heated greenhouse for the winter months ?

Thanks all, yes Amy in the greenhouse just frost free (most of the time) they will take a little frost. E. pininana is hardier and can be grown outside in a good year. This year was not a good one though :o( Last year was better see..
