Author Message   Bloomorelse  Posted on Monday, August 18, 2008 - 02:42 pm EST :    Has anyone in zone 4 had success with growing and overwintering Florida Sieboldii? I'm very tempted to order it next Spring. Bloomorelse - New Brunswick, Zone "4b"   Maggiepie  Posted on Monday, August 18, 2008 - 03:09 pm EST :    Joan, who are you thinking of ordering with? Are there catalogues out already?

I had found the plant at Safeway, it was rather small and neglected, though I snapped it up while I had the opportunity!

It's just everytime I see someone post a picture of one, I want one. Was just thinking ahead, that if I planted it against the basement wall, it may just survive with a little extra protection.

To my surprise, it grew to be about 4 feet all and gave me about half a dozen blooms. I plan to put a little chicken wire enclosure areound it and fill that with leaves to try to keep it over the winter here in Zone 4b/5a. I had three little problems with it: first, the earwigs absolutely loved the blooms and I had to finally put out some earwig bait; second, my daughter's Boston Terrier abslutely loved the blooms and I had to tie her up out of reach after she ate two of the six; and third, the little munchy critters (moles or voles or mice) liked the stems and ate one of the three off at the base. I am going to take a cutting next week to try to keep in the house just in case it doesn't make it through the winter....It is a very beautiful flower....

Be sure and let us know next Spring...either way. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I've had glads near the basement wall for years, and they stay all year. They do fine. Must be getting good heat from my basement wood stove.

This year it was a no-show :( I even had it planted next to the house in a sheltered position. SusanQ - Zone 4b-5b Wisconsin
