We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston. About my plant portraits

I know it isn't recommended choosing this flower with out a cold season, but I truly love this flower/tree and I would take any suggestions that you might have regading the maintenance and care of this flower. Bottom line--can it survive in this area?
