Hi,
I'm a new member to the PBS, name is Linda Foulis. I reside in Okotoks, AB,
Canada. We are zone 3a. We're lucky if we get 112 frost free days here in
the foothills of the Rockies. I depend a lot on creating microclimates in
the yard, and of course bring all of my tender bulbs and plants in for the
winter.
Wow! It sounds like you have a challenging climate. I admire your
determination in such an unlikely place as central Canada to try growing
tender things. A couple years ago I gave up trying tender things. I got
sick of hauling pots inside on cold days and outside again on warm days. I
made the big decision that if things can't survive on their own, outdoors,
then they didn't belong in my possession. :-)
Anyway - thanks for joining our group. It's nice to meet you!
