I'm from UK, and it got pretty cold there - but it didn't stop the Jasmine blooming, and the Passion Flowers - very nice in Autumn (Fall) when the orange fruits hung on them then seeded themselves, I dug those up for friends. Also Camelias in spring. I used to plant crocus in my lawn, by the time the grass grew and needed cutting the flowers had finished so it was OK. The crocus and the Forsythia coming into bloom told me spring was on it's way. Good luck with your planting, what kind of soil have you there? The Garden was quite small compared to what I have now, just in front of the hollow wall was a rose bed and the wall was filled with Impatiens and Polyanthus. That's the passion flower hanging all over the Garage.
