Duh
Change that to "We expect to get near -14 C here this week"

I've been real quiet lately, and debated whether I should chime in on this
topic, alas I think my poorer part won, so here is a lengthy reply...

Thanks Christiaan,
I really appreciate the information and I am very pleased that you took the
time to enlighten me.  Please send some bulbs to the exchange.  If they are
invasive but tender (killed by freezing) be certain to mention that so they
are not bought by the members in warmer areas.  (We expect to get near -20 C
here this week).  I can't imagine a greenhouse invasive that doesn't form
seed.  My invasive oxalis self-pollinates and shoots seed a half meter or so
and is cold hardy, making it a real pest.
