Would these be able to live and grow in New England? Could you keep it happy by doing so?

We live in Utah, we bought 2, planted them inside while they grew a bit, put them outside for spring and summer, now back in for the winter. They are about 3 ft tall now, I expect to plant them outside this year and see how it goes!

I'm not an expert in this area, but I think they have a chance. These quick growing trees are evergreens and like a lot of water in the growing season. I would plant it 2 - 4 inches deeper than the apparent soil-line to avoid freezing. The instructions recommended growing the tree inside for the first year. My plant has grown very well and recently sprouted new shoots (in the fall/winter season....indoors).I really like the tree.................

Go ahead and plant it. You are probably warm enough for it to survive the winter. If there is going to be a cold snap I would cover it. We live in RI and bring it in during the winter.

It should work quite nicely. From our use this growing season, it maintained a good temperature level as well as appropriate humidity.

Depending on where you live (how far north) but, I think thay should be ok since they sprout fairly quick and, with the rain in the fall, the plants shoulsd establish fairly well before going dormant in winter

Definetly! Just plan according to your zone climate as far as timing goes! I live in Pacific Northwest were it's cooler snd everything is thriving!

Hey There, I am in NC but sent those to my sis in California for a present, so I don't know for sure, but I imagine they would do fine at least as an annual as long as it gets full sun. Good Luck

Go for it, I am sure the season will be long enough. Besides, what will not planting them yield? :)

Yes, I have seen them in three ft. high bearing fruits, growing on large scale in Up State New York, so why not? NC. has a better climate.

I am not really able to help you with an answer to that question. 1. I beloved the thrive in warmer/ humid climates. 2. I have yet to plant mine. 3. Anything is possible you may need to be a bit creative. And 4. I live in Texas which is a little different from Virginia.

I can't answer that because I don't know where you live. Here in Kansas City area where it gets cold, no. They will freeze and die. I dig up bulbs and just put them in a can in a cool place like the garage. I do put some in pots and grow them as house plants in winter. They are very easy to keep through the winter. I have had some I didn't dig up come back if we had a mild winter, but you never know. steve

I am not positive but don't believe they would survive outside but in terrariums they would be fine.

I live in Massachusetts. The first year I grow them in a pot inside. The next spring I plant them outside and they do great! Once they are in the ground they are very hearty. This past winter they were completely buried in the snow. After the snow melted away they just bounced back up as if nothing happened.

I would plant in th spring, and they can survive a freeze, best in zones 2-7

They should grow great there. Like others have said, you will need full sun (at least 6 hours per day,) for bloom.

Well, why not plant some and let them grow and see what happens? I can think of absolutely no reason why this wouldn't work.
