I wonder if 'Savannah Sunset' is a real, cutting propagated cultivar, or some branding scheme someone invented for seedlings? A web search shows it rated at zone 8 by various nurseries, but, do these actually prove to be hardy in the PNW? My understanding is only L. leonurus comes from elevation in South Africa - the rest of the species have a more tropical distribution. And even for that one, Plant Delights says it takes a special form to be zone 8 hardy. Anyhow, let us know how it does for you!

I will definitely report on Savannah Sunset. I've never seen any species in gardens here in Portland, but I think some folks are growing L. leonorus.

UpperBay - Leonotus menthifolia 'Savannah Sunset' has not survived even our very mild winter here in Portland. Coldest in my garden was 22F, and only for a couple of hours. Another person in my neighborhood planted one last summer and I haven't seen growth on that one either.

If I find Leonotus leonorus I'll try it next.

OK, so, as expected.

I'm worried about the ones I kept in garage (L. menthifolia and L. leonorus) - I should be seeing some green shoots soon. Never went below 29F! But was chillier than usual for an extended period, with many days stuck in the mid to high 30s F...during the 'deep freeze'.
