| Saw some at my local Home Depot.. on 40% off sale.
Wondering if they are hardy in zone 7. I looked aroud the internet but couldn't find anything. If I have to lift them in the fall I don't think I will buy them, I might forget them. cherry |

| I have some that have come back 3 or 4 years now. One is not even in a very protected area. I'm thinking they are hardy in zone 7. |

| Generally considered marginally hardy in zone 7, like many bulbs with South African origin. Full sun and very well-drained soils should help with the success of overwintering. These are also excellent container plants that are easily stored over winter in less mild areas. |
