How about anyone growing them in zone 4 or 3?
How well are they doing in the ground over winter?

I have the chance to buy some but I don't know how well they will winter over in the ground.
Would love to hear from anyone who has been growing them in zone 5.
Thanks
you can grow them in Michigan, no problem at all. I dug up some rather large basjoo last fall, left them in the garage all winter and they are monsters this year.
