I used to live in Alaska, its hard to grow a lot of things there. We only have a few months for anything to grow. We always had a nice blackberry patch in our backyard though.

Oh wow Anne, I can’t imagine what that would be like, living there! It sounds absolutely beautiful, but that’s probably because I live in the tropics and often wish for snow on our hot days

Northscaping does have a hardiness zone search here. Also, try the Sustainable Urban Landscape Information Series Plant Selection Service. Both were listed on my Cold Climate Gardening Online Information page. I will ask around to see if I can find more.

Wishing there was a way to be able to search by hardiness zones. It’s frustrating to fine beautiful plants only to discover they will not grow in Zone-3.

The global warming is not a myth. March which used to be cool and even with occasional snow , has now decided to be as hot as june ,Temperature reached to 30 degrees with abnormal 15 degrees rise.The spring flowers had the shortest life esipecially prunes peaches and plums . Sternbergias and the narcissus had the shortest life .Exceptionally the tulips continue to enjoy the heat.Apple flowers are under attach by beetles unusually.Earths climate is rapidly changing.The highdensity orchid needs watering now, when normally it was end of May irrigation used to be Povided.Now we feel climate in zone 1 2 3 will usher into 4 5 6 if the trend remains like the present one.

I have always been interested in the work collecting tomatoes in Siberia that High Altitude Gardens has done...maybe worth a look? They were in the Rockies at 6,000 ft for years, now in N. Arizona I think.

We all talk about “Northern Climate” gardening but when you get to Zone 1 – you have mt amazement and congrads about whatever success you have. I have a sibling from Whitehorse – who loves her gardening and growing plants in home until the seedlings are killed off by a long term power failure.

You go for it Girls – you are amazing.
