I saw your post and wanted to share a photo I took of some dwarf plants for another member. Photo is from 2.7.2016
I pulled the plants out of the basement for the shot.
All plants are mature plants for my zone and will handle cooler temps of a basement or protected garage for the winter.
They will not handle cold temps... these are not cold hardy like a Basjoo.
Plants shown in Small Bordelons(not dwarf) rear, Truly Tiny in center. Little Prince on each side
Dwarfs for me are easy to manage/overwinter indoors and have a small footprint so you can tuck them in your landscape design. Great knee high visual interest.
Great puppers also.
I do not have any to share at the moment but I wanted to stress how easy they are to care for since you were looking.
