Stunning, but I don't think hardy, like the Zantdeschia aethiopica.

Thank you Sue No they are not hardy I had some last year and they died over winter.

Do you have somewhere frost free to overwinter them?

Only the house Siris and plants dont last long in my house as its dark and cold the only house plants that grow are christmas or Easter Cacti on the window cills I have a metal shed but not sure if they would survive with out windows.

Hi 3PB
Are you growing in pots ? if yes , stop watering them and before the 1st frost lay the pot on its side and once all the foliage has died down shake off all the compost check for any pest etc give them a dusting of yellow sulphur powder and put them in a tray covered in dry compost in a cool dark frost free spot. If in the border soil lift them and do what I have already mentioned .

You can keep growing in the house but they need to be kept cool and as least water as possible so I think lifting and storing is easier

One of mine has the start of buds showing ....
