Is this an evergreen plant? I live in zone 9.

The passion flower plant is not an evergreen. It will thrive outside but at the sign of freeze, it will die all the way down to the ground until late spring, early summer when its green leaves will once again peak above the ground and renew itself with growth upon the arrival of the warmness of the sun. I live in Arkansas and the passion flower is a plant that is indigenous to this state. There are many varieties of passion flowers too. This is my best friend's favorite flower.

It's not an evergreen - I'm in zone 7, and the plant is doing well. A beautiful vine -- I had two blossoms this summer!

This is my first winter with it, but after 3 light freezes here (Zone 8) mine are still green. They are beautiful, healthy vines. Can't wait 'till they bloom!

Yes. I live in zone 9 myself, and they've done very well. Just had my first bunch of berries. The berries are not the prettiest things, but they are very tasty.

Yes It Is. But, Grows like a weed and Blooms and Blooms. I can Hardly keep up with dead heading down to 3 leaves. Even when I don't, it still blooms. Make sure you get the DOUBLE knockout.

Twiggy sounds about right, I live in new jersey and planted it in September. I have no shoots at all and its only grown leaves, but its still alive I am hopeful.

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.

Well, it is just finnished eucalyptus. Be careful of direct sunlight as that will damage the finish. But otherwise as long as it is not rained on or in direct sunlight I think it should be fine.

The trees were planted about 9 months ago in Mariposa CA. It gets very hot there 100+ or - and cold in winter. so far so good. I believe it is also zone 9

this plant is native to southwestern parts of oregon and nothern california, so depending on your area and how close the climate is to those areas, I would say yes. Be sure to look up types of soil and watering recommendations as well.

I've loved this plant for a year. Seven or 8. THIS IS A SMALL PLANT. I have it outdoors now and it's doing well

Not to be an ass here, but does no one have access to the Internet to search and investigate? So, to do the work for people, here's the information on this particular tree. I would suggest one looks up any plant for it's success in their yard: http://www.pfaf.org/user/Plant.aspx?LatinName=Eucalyptus+gunnii And to answer your specific question, no, for zone 4-5, and starting it indoor to plant in zone 4 or 5 would be pointless.

I live in California, zone 9 and have it planted outside through the winter. The first year it lost all its leaves after the frost and I was worried it had died. I also had to replant it due to problems with the soil. This is it's second winter and it held up very well. No fruit yet, I am not expecting any for a couple of years. I have it positioned where it has some protection from cold winds. I previously had it planted out in the open, so this may have made a difference.

Don't know for sure, but I do know I had to move mine outside to literally get full sunshine. It was planted where a neighboring bush started shading it around midday. It was looking pathetic. I replanted it out in the open and two weeks later it was vibrant and alive and it is now flowering (which suprised me considering the fact I replanted it twice.

I tried growing it indoors in idaho and it grew very slowly until it had two nicely grown leaves above the cotyledons, but after that, it stopped growing and died. i am not en expert, so maybe i did something wrong. do a lot of research online to be sure you will be ready to grow this plant outside of its native habitat.

The cold here in Western Washington has not affected the tree, but I did bring it inside when lows were expected to be below freezing. Many new leaves over the past month because of our warm February. No flowers yet. I have had my plant since June of 2014.

I live in zone 9, but googled your zone for black bamboo. It's not recommended, but they list others more suitable to your cold winters.

I planted in a place where it gets no sun. It has leaves but is still only about 12 inches high, so it's growing very slowly. I'm giving it one more summer before I move it.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area with no frost, this plant is doing great where I live, plant it in a pot and move it indoor during cold winter months.
