The Plant Heat Zone map is based on the number of "heat days" experienced in a given area where the temperature climbs to over 86 degrees F (30☌).Īt this temperature, many plants begin to suffer physiological damage. Plant Heat Zones show when plants would start suffering from the heat. (Plant Hardiness Zones show how well plants withstand cold winter temperatures. The plant is heat tolerant in zones 8 through 5. Plants in this genus are notably resistant to honey fungus.Special Features:Attracts birds, Not North American native, Attractive flowers or blooms.
