Mine seem bloody near immortal. I forgot one of my plants last winter and
despite a total lack of water, being in an 8" pot in perlite, -5deg C temps
overnight and frosts that lasted 12 or more hours a day, it still sprouted
leaves in spring.
Mind you, it's probably like the tropics for a plant from the Andes!!.
Cheers
Dale at 42 deg south

Just a note to let you know that my rocoto seedlings may have been killed
by that late snow, but the withered stalks left behind are now sprouting
leaves- are these seeds immortal ?
