Hi Anita, We have had excellent success growing and blooming -- but less success in propagating -- LL. chinensis (yellow), longituba (white), and sprengeri (pink and blue). L. caldwellii also does well here. Some of the Chinese hybrids that Jim Waddick imported ca 10 years ago did well, others did not. Let's wait till next spring to see which are still here, since I had to move some of them last summer.
