I live in Wisconsin, zone 5. Can these be planted outside?

I have mine outside, but I will bring them in for the winter, just to be safe!

No, most succulents are very unhappy at 40 degrees; under that, they die Since they hold water (one of their great drought-resistant features), they quickly freeze and die off A few varieties will come back to life in the spring, but do not believe that any would survive the hard freezes of Zone 5 I lost a lot of plants last winter, with only a week of sub-zero temps and covered in plastic.

Yes you could, we just tossed them in amongst our really boring green plants, sadly our landscaping company think they are weeds, even though we tell them not to! Warmth and moisture seems to be all they need!

I am going to guess no . its most likely been growing outdoors and ship to you . I am in zone 5 borderline for 6 .if you grew it from seed then you must harden it off . I bought my last fall its just getting leaves now in my garden .its a late spring . enjoy your plant !

Do you have a warm very sunny place to put them if you plant them if so I would go ahead and plant them if not I would wait and place the cuttings in a cool place until spring. I am certainty not an expert on these but, this is what I would do if I had just received them. Hope this helps!

I planted them outside in a big tractor tire without soaking. They were beautiful and are coming back again this year I noticed. Texas, zone 8

No sure. I know it required at least 5 hours of sun a day. But you can plant it in a pot and place it indoor near windows with the most day light during the day and no worry about the zones.

No, I think they are Mammoth Sunflower seeds and I intend to plant them outside when the weather is nice. Two totally different types of plants--I would definitely not plant them together. I hope this helps :)

Not in the winter. They don't like it below 40 & frost turns them into mush because they hold a lot of water in their fleshy "leaves". Even covered with straw or other mulch, I don't think they could survive Wisconsin winters. One solution is to plant in containers & bring them inside at the first frost warning.

You can grow almost anything in southern Florida! Yes you can. They like acidic soil and under a tree ( evergreen best) would be good. Not too hot

I think that these would be fine in FL. There were a few things (like watermelon and goji berries) that didn't do as well in our Adirondack climate. They would do well in a warmer climate like yours.

This plant could be planted outside in zones 10-12. Mine is in a pot outside in a shaded area.. but i will need to bring it in when fall comes.

I don't know, but it seems like you could. They are live seeds, so why not? I know you cant use seed packaged to plant for sprouts because they put 'treatments' on those seeds, like to keep it from molding, etc. I would think that you could get seeds to plant cheaper though.

I'm sorry, I can't really tell you for sure. You may want to direct these questions to the seller. I live in NC and planted them last year late in the season and they did beautifully. I will plant them earlier this year, once it gets warm, and am hoping last years plants will come back. Just make sure you have good soil and they get some sun. Mine were planted in partial sun but it was still a very bright area. Not gloomy shade. They do get seed pods on them when they are mature plants. Good luck!

I live in eastern VA, along the coast, and I have mine planted in pots and bring them in for the winter. I would suggest you wait till late APR MAY time to order. They come well packaged and in good condition.

I live in zone 7 and they are annuals. No change in the winter, still green. Full sun or shade is fine. Mine is in full sun. Follow the planting direction and you will be fine.

I'm not a plant expert. I live in Chicago and I am waiting till late April or early May to get a few. I did get some last year and they grew big. They need a lots of room for roots so you will need a really big pot of in the ground. I don't have a place to bring them in for the winter but if you read up on them it says they can endure winter if they are protected. Good luck.

I germinated mine on a damp, almost we paper towel on a shelf in my southern facing window. As soon as they sprouted, I planted them in small pots. When they were about 6" tall and branched out, I placed them in my garden outside. I am in northern Maine, zone 5, so hoping they will make it through the winter. I have read that they will survive in zone 5, but I've also heard that they won't. Springtime will tell. Hope this helps.
