The publication available at http://www.actahort.org/books/132/132_2.htm

I will likely be moving to the mountains
of northern Georgia in the near future.

The average high in January is 49.8 deg F
(extreme high around 70 between 1949-2003), and
the average low 28.5 (extreme low around -10
between 1949-2003). The average high in
July is 89.3 (extreme 102), and the low 65.7
(extreme around 45). Avg total ppt: 57.9 inches/
year (min 3.6 in Aug, max 6.3 in Mar). Avg
snow: 1.9 inches/year (max 0.8 in Jan).

Are there any varieties of vanilla that
will grow in that climate?
