Canes are fairly tough such as Irene, Sophie, and Silvermist. I let a big pot out until mid December with several hard freezes and then decided to save them before it was too late. They are sitting in a pan downstairs and sending up new shoots - I don't think they would have survived the whole winter outdoors though.

Sophie probably is not as big as Irene (tall growing) or Silvermist but is not a small cane either.
