One of our most requested plants and very rarely available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHARDINESS: zones 4-9 (I've only seed in zones 7-9 in person)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXPOSURE: part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSIZE:  6-8'+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSHIPPING SIZE: 1\/2 gallon container.  16-20\" plant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Garden Treasures Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44382750474318,"sku":"2:10:13E:16","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0264\/8516\/2062\/files\/IMG_7864_8074ef5f-25ee-4ab9-a373-60c18e320c8e.jpg?v=1790291152","url":"https:\/\/www.garden-treasures.com\/products\/sasafras-tzumo","provider":"Garden Treasures Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
