Quote: it means you can overwinter stuff better then me in zone 5 really id suggest lookin at LOCAL nuseries (stiens is ok i guess but NO home depot menards k-mart or wal-mart or the like) there are acouple local nuseries i know of one is my fave there staff KNOWS what there talkin about an if i have any questions ill ask an trust what they say (im not even that good with them geek squad people course chargin what?? 40 bucks fer somethin that takes likerally 3 minutes is MAD) so yea the place i like only has 2 locations an there not really that close but they aint that far eighter well to me there in my back yard but thats likely cause 12 hour roadtrips are still 2nd natureOriginally posted by princessmelokia wow...that is so awesome. i'm new to gardening, so i'm still trying to figure everything out and this zone thing is new to me. apparently i'm in zone 3a. now i gotta figure out what that means in english...lolid say find some indicator plants while youre starting (fer me pineapple sage is great) with them only the leaves start to wilt when they need something if youre using pots --like me ifnot adjust accordingly-- step 1 is ALLWAYS water from there sun then whatever till they perkup it usially takes overnight |

Thank you so much!! I have been reading and reading to figure it out, but my gardening books have their own "special" zoning that is not the same as what every other plant book/plant guide uses and it has been so frustrating. I hate trying to guess what works for my area, but now I know!! Thanks so much again!! ~M~ |

Blue-eyed, you will find a lot of it is trial and error as well. I am technically Zone 4a, but have things that are hardy for Zone 5 that come back every year. |
