Dear Angelo:

Yes, this is correct...this is our third season. It flowers for us in
mid-July. Once again, this illustrates that we must consider all plants
hardy until we have killed them ourselves...at least three times.

Dear Tony,

are you saying you have Ammocharis coranica in the ground, unprotected in

NC with 8F and it flowers from three years ?!

I didn't know this species was cold hardy. BTW, is this species summer

growing in Mediterranean climate or again it is one of those with
'changeable humour' ? My seedlings are pushing leaves now.
