Cleomes. Grow In Dry Mediterranean Garden?

Question

We live in the Algarve, Portugal. Mediterranean, winter- rain climate.
USDA 10b as coldest temperatures we get. (1-5 Centigrade). Very hot in summer, 30C.

Will Cleome (hassleriana?) Grow here happily?

Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

Although, it will prefer a certain climate, it can also be considered quite invasive. Seeds are capable of surviving heavy freezes, and will re-emerge in Spring.

They will grow just about anywhere! This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/cleome/growing-cleomes.htm
