Dusty Miller

The dusty miller is sold as an annual.  I planted these during the spring of last year.

They usually doesn't make it through the winter here in

Zone 6.  But last year we could almost have been labeled Zone 7.

The mountains of North Carolina are usually considered one zone colder than the eastern part of the state.  But last winter was so warm that slugs and bugs and snapdragons and dusty millers made it through.  Now if it would get warm enough for the lantanas to survive.
