As usual, an interesting and very nice group.

Yes, indeed, very interesting plants. How hardy is the Lantana horrida? And what hedychium are you growing? Is it hedychium coronarium?

The Lantana horrida is slightly frost hardy, but regenerates from the base if mulched to prevent soil freezing. I have several Hedychiums including coronarium, greenii, 'Dr. Moy', and a few other varieties. Hedychium rhizomes survive winter with a good mulch.

Thanks for the info, Steve

From whence did you get your variegated Stewartia from, if I might ask? Also where did you get that beautiful variegated goldenrod? Nice pics...

I picked up the Stewartia as a gallon plant; only variegated one in the block. I found the variegated goldenrod in a field. It sends up all green stems also.
