Every zone 8 plant I have ever had croaked the first winter. I never buy plants that are rated zone 8 as the lowest number.

Interesting! I have only looked for zone 7 so far. Paid a bunch for some hibicus(which I believe is hardy to zone 7) this year - now I am worried they won't survive the winter. I will for sure mulch! Thanks for the welcome and the tips!
