Hi group,

I bought a pot full of Albuca shawii at Trader Joe's grocery store, planted it out in the garden, and have been enjoying the yellow bells flowering amongst my many alliums. Will it be tender and annual in my USDA Zone 5 winter? Can anyone share experiences regarding hardiness of this plant.
