Hi,
I am not sure if some M.yunnanensis varieties are as cold hardy than M.basjoo varieties. Both of them can stand several degrees freeze and snow.
I am talking about the variants in temperature regions in China where they have cultivated for animal fodder by farmers up to elevation 2.6 Km. However, in Yunnan are M.yunnanensis varieties and Sichuan are M.basjoo varieties. These two species are not overlapping anywhere in china.
You have to notice that not all variants of them are not so cold hardy which depends on their origin.
Markku.
