This is great information - Thank You! I'm certainly interested to find out which Brug you have. Let me know if you find out. I kinda figured if you plant in rocky, sandy soil they can sometimes make it through the winter...but not the rare cold one. You've all mentioned plants I've forgotten and should include. I'll take pics when its done and its a big project that should complete mid-next year. Most of the plants are Chile so I'm trying to figure out what works from other parts. I've always wanted to try Cantua but have trouble finding it and some of the hardiness references say it won't take our climate. I guess this would be a good experiment.

Here's a Lobelia tupa pic I took this summer at UBC Botanical Gardens.
