Any cold hardy double compound leaves?

I'll have to look into that, thanks. The winter flame acacia have pretty foliage.

The flowers are pretty special too.
It'd be cool if they can take the winters.

Everything I have found descibes that Acacia for zones 8 through 11.

Well I found the one that said zone 4 to 8, lol.
Like I said I'm dubious of it but maybe people have tried it out and been successful, probably easier in the landscape and not so much pot culture.
Technically Australia has no climate zones that match zones 4-5 so can the trees last it out?

 

[GailC]

Thats the same thing I'm finding, shame as its really pretty. If I was going to have a tropical, I would probably go with a tamarind or texas ebony.

Glad you got there. I normally will not buy temperate zoned plants in the winter but because these are down to zone 2, I figures there should be no problem. I remember thinking about a year ago that this would be an interesting plant to work with and then I forgot about them until this thread acme about. Mine we reshipped yesterday.

You'll have to share what you do with your peas. I was planning on taking starts off the big shrub at my moms but I might just dig one of the big shrubs instead.
They are just growing as weeds along the driveway, a couple are at least 5 ft tall. They never get any care so they are drought resistant too. I should check them out before it snows.
