I have a question for you all. How hardy are the neomarcia? How far north will they grow in the garden without protection? My reference materials say zone 10-11. I am pretty sure they grow into 9b. I was thinking for sending one to a friend in Sacramento and I know they can get frost. And I know Carla will probably not have time to cover them, they will be on their own. I wouldn't want to send one of them to a certain death.
today's photo....the climbing fern in the backyard.
