I think Zone 8 is about where you can start to expect them to live over winter. If you treat them as annuals you can grow them outside almost anywhere. Just keep the mother plant inside and plant a few of the spiders outside every spring.

They are beautiful. Do I need to dig them up and put in pots and bring inside for the winter? This is the first time I have done this and I hate to loose them. If I leave them in the ground and they die back this winter will they come back this spring? I have several airplane plants that I have planted outside around a tree. They are beautiful.
