Does anyone have a list of cultivar-specific hardiness (cold/heat/sun tolerance)? For example, I have anecdotally heard that Japanese Maple Arakawa are very sun-tolerant. On the other hand, Japanese Maple Katsura are cold-tolerant (some people have apparently had success growing them in the ground in Zone 4).
I've personally noticed my Japanese Maple Ao Kanzashi and Katsura respond decently to late-Spring colds here in Zone 4 Minnesota — so much so I might do an experiment to see if I can grow them in the ground. On the other hand, Koto Hime was not cold tolerant at all! Anyone else have this kind of anecdotal experience or collective experience?
