I grow outdoors and live in the NE Kingdom of Vermont - Zone 3A. (I don't care what the new map says, I still expect to see -40 one of these winters. Just because the last few haven't seen 40 below doesn't convince me that it isn't going to happen.) They're grown in raised beds and you can see photos on my website:

No special care or coddling goes into them, they're tough and easy to grow. The best way I've found to plant them outdoors is to make a mound of goopy mud an inch or so above the existing grade and press them into the mud (for maximum soil contact for the roots) making sure NOT to have the plant (itself) below grade. They do not like staying wet and will rot out if the drainage isn't 'perfect'.
