Hi. I'm Ether, and I garden in Canada's banana belt, in Toronto's eastern
suburb, Scarborough - Zone 6. I have a few little micro-climates though,
that are Zone 7 or better. It's not that huge a yard, about 45 ft wide by
about 70 ft. deep.


Canada's banana belt is right!

We're in north central Pennsylvania and theoretically in
Zone 5, but our climate is more realistically assessed as
Zone 4. It's much colder than one would expect for
Pennsylvania because of our altitude, we're in the
Appalachian Mountains at about 1500-1700 feet.


Brrrrr! And I thought living in the banana belt was bad! I'm grateful for the
"Lake Effect" now!

Anyway, welcome and I sure do love those photos.


Thanks on both counts. :-)

Who needs a lawn anyway. :-) Less for hubbie to mow.


Useless things, lawns. I'm decreasing ours as fast as I
can...

Great minds think alike! ;-)
