Ooh, I like the variegated one, added to my list then. I know those grow well, my dad has the regular one all over his yard. Funny thing, it doesn't grow where he wants it because he keeps it raked to dirt, no organic matter added, but then he digs up and throws out the dead ones in his compost pile. So, yeah, every compost pile he's started is just covered in these.. lol Not really wild about the plain ones, probably because I grew up seeing them every day, but I like the variegated ones.

Calatheas are my favorite. This one, Calathea Zebrina, is hardy in 9B.

Ooh, I like both the pink polka dot plant and the calathea zebrina.

I have some Draeceana(?) that I was told were houseplants that I bought on clearance at Lowe's, now I wonder if those are hardy enough for that spot too.
