Professional Growing Information 
I love this very hardy cultivar. I don't know why the info states it as being sold as Perle von Nurmberg... that's an entirely different plant! I have an extreme Mediterranean climate - arid summers often over 45c, and very cold wet winters but seldom below 2c overnight. Maybe one frost every 3 years - and coastal salty winds. Fred Ives takes it all and asks for more - and looks great while doing it.
