This is just a great little hut for starting everything earlier in the spring. I'm no edibles expert but I've started tomatos, broccoli and an assortment of herbs far before ideal outdoor conditions. It's not the biggest starter hut but it will definitely hold enough youngsters to fill your garden.

Depends on where you live. I live in Ky and it will grow only in spring and fall

Yes! I am in upstate NY and have the lemon tree in a big floor pot with some good citrus soil you can find at Walmart or any home or garden store and mine is doing so well. I didn't get flowers this winter, probably because it wasn't humid enough around the plant. Mine goes outside in the summer only. The lemons are delicious.

I grow mine in Wisconsin, just need to make sure you bring them indoors before the temperatures begin to drop.

I don't know if it will be winter hardy. I potted mine and keep it in the house during the winter and it sits on my front porch during the warmer months. I do know that with keeping it indoors it fruits all year round. Sorry, I couldn't specifically answer your question.

What zones can these survive outside in the winter? I am in zone 4 in Iowa.

they will grow just fine there. As for the height, it's a vine, so what ever you have it growing up or around will determine that. Winter growth would depend on where you live.

They are lichens and can be cultivatived indoors year round along with moss and Spanish moss! However, outside you will have to wait until spring, summer and fall!

Whne I read about it, I think it can be either. Mine's on the outside deck right now (and growing really well) but in my area, I will be bringing it inside for the winter months. Don't know how that will go as I've never had a gardenia before.

I don't know specific zones, but the website I always refer to (Trees of Joy) advises that low temps of 13 degrees F is enough to damage above ground growth (especially new growth). The author gives methods to protect your outdoor tree in the winter. He lives in SE PA (very close to me, in fact), so he has experience growing the trees in a pretty cold winter climate.

There are a variety of plants but for the most part I'd say yes. They like light and warmth, you'll love them!

I think that these would be fine in FL. There were a few things (like watermelon and goji berries) that didn't do as well in our Adirondack climate. They would do well in a warmer climate like yours.

Sorry, but I do not know. I am near Albany, NY, where we have cold winters. I bought my plant in late Summer and it grew tremendously. However, we brought it in the house for the first winter to give it a chance to develop a little more before we try leaving it out all year. Once we plant it outside, we plan to plant it near the house on the south facing side to give it the best chance of survival.

it is a perennial, in Illinois you would need to grow it in a pot and move it indoors when temperatures dip below 50 degrees

That should be fine. I grew them in St Louis last year. They are a bit stringy and sensitive to moving them around.

You could also try Sherwood's Seeds. I had better luck from them with the Carolina Reapers.

Hi there Swamp Sparky, thank you for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds. Many, if not all of the seeds, would produce well in Hardiness Zone 8b. Of course, each different plant type will require it's on unique care when planting. Although the low temperatures aren't extreme, they can still be cold enough to kill tomatoes if they aren't kept indoors until those low temperatures are past. Some of the plants won't do well if planted in direct sunlight where the high summer temperatures reach into the 90's on a pretty regular basis so locate those plants accordingly as well. I've thought about adding this information to the bonus downloadable Planting, Sprouting and Storing Guide that you receive access to with your purchase of our survival seeds, but that's a daunting task that will take a huge time commitment. Thank you again for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds.
