Depends on the climate where you live if you get frost or freezing temperatures don't plant it in the ground.

I live in Tucson so some annuals overwinter here as perennials, but I have a rhubarb (1st year) in mine and another with several varieties of mint which have survived our last very mild winter. I think unless you have a very deep rooting perennial you would be OK with these planters, dependent on temperature,. they are far enough off the ground that a light bulb(incandescent) under the bench and a cover over the bench should protect most plants through even a freeze into the teens.

I'm not sure I could be much help unfortunately mine died just after I got it but i think you can set it up in a nice warm environment so it doesn't get too cold you should be fine.. now transplanting it I wouldn't think you would be to do it immediately... I don't know the growth rate on this particular species I think you'd be fine until spring...

Don't see why not. They are going to freeze back in the winter.Growing showy, tropical "Elephant Ear" (Colocasia plants is possible even in cold weather zones. These plants make a great showing as a backdrop or a center of interest in any garden. If temperatures average below about 40-45ºF (roughly 4-7ºC) for any extended period of time, the root system - tuber(s) - must be dug up and stored in a cool, dry place until replanted the following warm season.

Sorry, but I do not know. I am near Albany, NY, where we have cold winters. I bought my plant in late Summer and it grew tremendously. However, we brought it in the house for the first winter to give it a chance to develop a little more before we try leaving it out all year. Once we plant it outside, we plan to plant it near the house on the south facing side to give it the best chance of survival.

I live in Massachusetts where winter is pretty cold. I planted the bulbs 3 weeks ago in a pot indoors, and I have lovely 4 inch green seedlings. Will need a few more weeks to see them flower. Too cold for outdoors around here.

Because you don't get excessive cold weather anytime soon would probably work. 60 degree weather should be ok to put out seeds. Plenty of sun and keep moist to promote germination.

It depends on where you live. If you are south of TN or MO you can plant them anytime. I live in a slightly colder area so I keep mine as house plants in winter. In the summer I divide them. Some go in the garden as annuals (though some come back) and the rest as hanging baskets or porch pots. Anyway you use them, they are wonderful.

I'm in CA too. I have mine in a pot that I move to a warmer area when it gets below 35 at night. I forgot to move it one night a few weeks ago when it hit 30 degrees and I've been struggling to keep it alive ever since. If it survives, I will put it inside under a grow light next Winter. Not sure what the plan is when/if it gets bigger.

Nope, they cannot. You are supposed to plant it outside when there is no more threat of frost, then after the summer, before it frost out, cut the leaves off down to the ground, dig up the bulb of the plant, put it in a brown paper bag, store it in your house somewhere warm and dry, when summer comes back around you can plant it back outside, give it lots of water and it will come back, and you'll get more bulbs every year.. That's how we plant these in maryland, they are for summertime only.

Hello , by the name , this plant came from the very cold area , I think it will be ok in yours. Try to grow at very sunny location where snow melts fast , and close to your house , the hit helps a lot and the first few years , try to cover it's trunk . Good luck .

Hi there Swamp Sparky, thank you for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds. Many, if not all of the seeds, would produce well in Hardiness Zone 8b. Of course, each different plant type will require it's on unique care when planting. Although the low temperatures aren't extreme, they can still be cold enough to kill tomatoes if they aren't kept indoors until those low temperatures are past. Some of the plants won't do well if planted in direct sunlight where the high summer temperatures reach into the 90's on a pretty regular basis so locate those plants accordingly as well. I've thought about adding this information to the bonus downloadable Planting, Sprouting and Storing Guide that you receive access to with your purchase of our survival seeds, but that's a daunting task that will take a huge time commitment. Thank you again for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds.

Yes. I planted my seeds in the March first (I live in Lebanon on the Mediterranean sea) the weather was mild (around 65-75 degrees). Nothing happened, I was disappointed till yesterday May 15, I discovered the plant is growing all over.

Hi. I'm in Ma. It will but while small I would keep it in a pot and bring it inside for the winter. Once larger you can leave it outside but you'd have to wrap it to protect it. They don't grow very fast.

I live in Massachusetts. The first year I grow them in a pot inside. The next spring I plant them outside and they do great! Once they are in the ground they are very hearty. This past winter they were completely buried in the snow. After the snow melted away they just bounced back up as if nothing happened.

I would plant in th spring, and they can survive a freeze, best in zones 2-7
