We love the pinkish shades to complement our coral house trim. We are in zone 9b and I have had these for 4 years. We have been down to 32 degrees but have not had a hard freeze in this time. I started with three small plants and now have 9 over 4'. They are growing with the best color in full sun but also do well in mostly shade although with less vibrant color. While all my neighbors grow Petras these are a nice contrast.
