I grew Z "Green Goddess' for a number of year- with flowering in light shade. It eventually dwindle -I think after some severe weather, but I am not a few of big green flowers so didn't fuss over. Years ago I live in the middle of Kansas City and had Z. albomaculata planted near a concrete sidewalk and if bloomed for years there. I suspect the concrete slab was a heat sink that helped it thorugh long cold winters. In my current drier 'Prairie' garden I can't seem to grow and of the colorful Z hybrids as I wish I could. Can't grow everything. Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd. Kansas City Missouri 64152-2711 USA Ph. 816-746-1949 Zone 5 Record low -23F Summer 100F +
