Zebrina, young acuminata, sumatrana, or something else? Thanks in advance.
I didn't even notice where you are located when first looking at this thread, so now I am truly curious. I am just north of you in Courtenay. Did the lady you got those from suggest they were outdoor hardy around here? Did she give you any other info on how she came by them, or how she has been growing them? If they are over-winterable outdoors in our climate, then that narrows down the list to only a couple of potential options - sikkimenses as Jeff Zone 8 N.C. mentioned being one (and difficult to come by in Canada, at least in my experience).
