The plants and shrubs that Lowe's and Home Depot sell are not necessarily the right things for our climate zone.

If I like plant, I plant it and replace it when it dies. This year it froze way south, so even if you are in the recommended zone no garrentee they won't freeze.
When They freeze out so far they've come back. This was worse year for freezing sence I planted them, they are coming back And they are easy to propagate. Mine do very well over 6 feet tall and 4 foot wide. See several around my area. plus they're cheap, so even if the freeze out and die easily replaced.
