Hello & thx for the msg...this plant is strictly tropical...and is more difficult than other tropicals due to the variegation…….I would not recommend it for cold climates..

Best of growing

Thankyou all for the info. I guess at a $100 a plant it would not be a good investment here in Illinois being it does get COLD. Thanks again!
