UK hardiness

Is it hardy in the UK?

RHS rating, winter survival and overwintering for 11687 plants.

UK hardiness is about your garden's coldest night, not a regional map — mild coastal and urban gardens hold plants that fail inland at the same latitude. Ratings follow the RHS hardiness system. US gardener? See the USDA hardiness library.
