Probably hardy even into zone 6, where its foliage may be killed, but it will recover in the spring from its underground stems.

One can best enjoy these when grown in a container and viewed at eye level. This species was introduced by the Arnold Arboretum. China. The last picture is the size we are shipping. Zones 6-9.
