the two of you who had suvivors... how cold were your winters?
I'm in central FL, i think a zone9a and we just don't get that cold.
We may get over night lows (which is actually 6-8am) that may hit 32-35f
and this past winter that only happened 3 times, 1 day each.
One of my neighbors, he just came down from OH, and he bought some "Sun Hosta" - which is basically albomarginata. I told him I'd see how his does before I spend any money on them. I'd love to have a few of my beauties down there. (WI for the warmer months)
