SoulGardenLove, thanks for this glorious photo. SW_Gardener, thanks for pointing out how much it looks like water... now I know exactly where to put it!

I have a thriving plant here in 7b but I'm not going to try leaving it out in the winter. Grew over 5' long from a small 4" pot. Whew!

Overwintered here 2 years in a row and we had nights that were consistently below 40deg., frequently 30-35deg, tho no hard frosts.

I always water my plants the day or evening before the temps drop low - keeps the plant cells from collapsing - and I have very good luck with them I think because of this.

Mine trails a lot, it's in wall planters. I'm wondering how you got yours so full ??

The RED barrel is a delightful addition to this grouping. Love it !!
