Of course, you can go to Washington, DC (U.S. Botanic). You can go in
this chamber (outside) and look for VFT near the small pond. You will find
huge VFT! It can grows well in DC area for years without care. :) Yes, it
survived in zone 7 area. I have the Park Seed books and found the VFT in
it and was classified as hardiness - zone 7.
