I have a M.Basjoo x M.Balbisiana of the Upham Giant Basjoo lineage and have no problems with it.

There are a few of these mats in Southwest Ohio. Zone 5-6 and no problems with them that I know of.
I know it is not 100% M.Balbisiana but it is half an answer to your question.
It qualifies for a free shrug.
