It is really hardy-comes back after 40 below winters. However, it will need consistent watering. You don't have to drown it, just be regular in your watering schedule.

I live in Mid Tn. We have hot summers, mild to cool winters. I started a patch of comfrey this spring. Planted in rich soil, didn't water and it grew like crazy. We had fairly wet spring and summer. It grew like crazy could have harvested 100,000 seeds. Instructions said don't pick first year. I gave some of the leaves to my goats, reason for planting, they love it. It was still blooming up till frost hit it. Will cut it 4-5 times next year & increase planting. Hope this helps. Old Goat

I planted 5 seeds and so far one has poked up through the soil. I live in So Calif and have kept them wet. The best way to grow these plants is to buy comfrey roots, but nobody wants to ship comfrey roots to Ca. :(

It is a lotus, and from my experience it can be grown in most zones as long as you follow the directions and keep the water somewhat cool.

Mine was grown in east TN and we had temps in the low 90's.I would think it would do fine(it was planted in a shady area)

Its the only way I grow. I started inside with a 6x18" inch filter with prefilter,run the ducting through the open end of my hood then on the socket side run the ducting through the roof vent...all that is connected to a hydrofarm 6 inch 400 cfm fan and then out to exhaust and my temps are never above 78 and the humidity never exceeds 48%...and falls to a low of 30% at the least,these are ideal numbers for a perfect soil garden

I really have no idea. It could be one of many things. Did u follow the setup instructions on how exactly to plant it & take care of it? What's the temperature like where you are keeping it? Are you over watering it? Have you tried contacting the company?

Yes you can do that. This plant want's a lot of sun and water. Don't worry about the degrees. It will grow gr8.

I just purchased this plant myself, but I live in zone 10 and it is advertised as requiring a warm climate. I would check on other websites that give you more detailed general care instructions to find your answer. Check the other sites first before ordering, but my plant from Amazon is very healthy and growing well, and the price was quite good.

Roselle is another name and grows in tropical and subtropical climates,you can probably grow it at home with the right conditions(?)

If you bring it inside as a potted plant and make sure it gets a sunny window(one that doesn't have protective film on it). I would also mist the leaves when watering,as indoor heating can dehydrate the leaves.

The best time to plant this seed is when temperatures are between 60-80 degrees, in late spring or early fall. It is difficult to keep newly seeded areas moist enough during the high heat of summer.

I believe it can because of the climate. Just remember to give it water so often, and shade daily

I used an AeroGrow set, (which has very small amt of growing medium) but I imagine you could use small pots, or even seed growing kits/egg cartons, just to begin growing the seeds. When approx 2-3 inches transplant to larger pots and/or outside if the weather is agreeable.

I'm in zone 6, and my plant is thriving. It's survived three winters of unusual cold and winter precipitation, but I'm not sure about zone 5.

We have it placed in full sun but not in direct sunlight at our kitchen window. We put it in a 4" ceramic pot and used a mix of 60% potting soil and 40% miracle grow vegetable soil. We water it about twice a week. The plant is doing great and grows a new leaf about every two weeks.

I live in Pa., Mine is outside on the porch and I get alot of sun. I only water mine twice a month. sounds like your over watering. Once the temps drops i will bring it inside and put it where it will get alot of sun.

Yes. the internet says that it grows in zones 3 to 11. I don't live that far north but my winters are cold. Mine does fine.

I live in north Texas. I have tried to grow moss in open air here but it has always died, no matter how much I misted and watered. I could never find the right combination. I think it is too dry and hot here for most of the year. My moss collection lives indoors in a medium sized turtle bowl capped with a clear plate. I remove the plate occasionally to release the excess moisture, and I rotate the bowl a quarter turn once a week. The air temperature inside doesn't get above 85 degrees F. The moss is still alive and healthy, and growing. I think most mosses seems to like cool wet climates. That's all I can tell you.
