It is a beautiful plant and well worth the effort in my opinion
I have another seedling from my mislabeled bunch that I'm pretty sure is HH that will be in the greenhouse this winter, and if the outside one doesn't make it I'll put in more effort protecting its successor next time around. I'm planning to mound some leaf & grass mulch around them in a low chicken wire frame, but nothing more.

The (alleged) M. thomsonii also has its first pup, but haven't taken a photo yet.
