I know it is supposed to be hardy only to zone 8.

You're right - if we wait until mid-summer, the rest of the country will be the place to visit. <BR/><BR/>Your garden has a wonderfully dense and abundant feel, with the roses overlapping and what looks like a perennial geranium spreading skirts around the iris-type Annie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30849155.post-85392989100939140022007-04-15T11:54:00.000-07:002007-04-15T11:54:00.000-07:00Whaaaa!!I want to move to your state!Beautiful lov...Whaaaa!!I want to move to your state!Beautiful lovely blossoms ...the kind I dream of in summer!Here in my zone 6 in Canada I did manage to find brave early bloomers..it's so cold the ground still frozen in my garden!I need oven mitts not garden gloves to keep hands warm!<BR/>Come by and see but grab a ~warm sweater!~ How nice to see your blossoms! :)NGNaturegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00177418253271097079noreply@blogger.com
