For me, Kyles Pink has been amazingly hardy! Would you believe I left her outside in a big pot all winter long with no mulch, watering or anything? Of course the trunk died but she came up from her roots to be the first bloomer in late June--and bloom she does. She was close to the front porch with a southern exposure, a microclimate for sure. I ask you, how can I get rid of this one?

Here she is in her same spot, the next fall--her trunk from last year is still showing also.
