Thank you Mary.
My question is simplier: may I grow them assuring not less than 32°F in the winter nights? I usually heat and I have a minimum just over 0°C (=32°F).
My regards.

Hi,
I don't think anyone has answered Alberto about the hardiness of these
bulbs. I only grow Phaedranassa and understood it was not very hardy and
grow it in my greenhouse which we do not heat unless we have an unusually
cold night. A friend had Phaedranassa planted in her garden in Santa Cruz,
California and I remember wondering when I saw it if that was wise. She
lost it the next year when it got colder than usual. I don't know the exact
temperature was in her garden so can't convert it to metric, but I believe
it was in the low twenties (F.)
