Good to know it's doing well in Wales.
I tried it outdoors twice and did badly.

But in a glasshouse they grow 8 - 9 ft every year and the trusses get new growth and the whole plant goes into a wild fast growing mess if not controlled.

It is said that our weather is a lot like Seattle so I would have thought where you are would be ok in a hoop house or glasshouse.

I would not bother outdoors, its a dead loss. You need to be further south by about 400 KM
