That' s correct I live in north Italy between zone 7 and 8 but here the =
Himalayan plants (I don't have arisaemas long enough to say..) do much =
better then the Japanese... We have very short winters with sometimes =
lot of snow but also dry periods and very warm days in the middle of =
winter...One question.... I noticed that my plants (most wild orchids =
and a couple of aroids) do grow better under certain trees and won't =
grow at all under others, does anybody know if there are some type of =
trees that arisaemas like speciosum and galeatum can't stand?

Subject: Hardiness List - was New member


 
A discussion about what people grow where & how sounds good, but a =
simple list 
of average minimum temperature tolerances doesn't begin to cover all =
the permutations involved. 
 
An example would be the species from the Himalayas.  Several of them =
are technically winter hardy
for USDA zones 5 or 6, but I find them harder to grow outdoors than =
equally cold tolerant Japanese species.  
The difference: I have dry summers & wet winters with little or no =
snow cover, basically the opposite
conditions the Himalayan species enjoy.
 
About 15 years ago I bought a Trochodendron aralioides seedling.  The =
common Hardiness rating at the time was zone 8.  
It's still alive and happy here in zone 6A and now I believe it's =
listed as zone 5.  A few years back we had about three 
years where I could overwinter typically zone 7 plants outdoors =
without any additional contrivances.  Then things went
back to normal and they all croaked.  So I don't put too much stock in ==
the USDA zones.
