Re: unknown plant

It will do well outside during the summer months but will not survive the winter. It can be overwintered inside but to look its best and bloom well it should be moved back outside when danger of frost is past in the spring.

Re: unknown plant

Sludg3 - Hardy means it can tolerate below freezing winters. It doesn't mean it's tough otherwise in some way, or not.
