Default Does Leyland Cypress do well in Pennsylvania ?

I posted before seeking advice on Leyland Cypress. Thanks for the replies. Now
I've run into another problem, which is that I've gotten conflicting reports of
how fast the LC grow, from nurseries in my own area who sell them ( and it's
the "green" LC they are selling). Most nurseries say they grow 3 to 4 ft per
year, and grow 40 to 60 feet high, and ten feet wide. But a couple nurseries
said they only grow a foot a year at the most, and that the mature height would
only be 15 to 25 feet !

I may be beating this LC thread to death, but can anyone share any expeiences
of LC growing in Pa ? Someone responded about central NJ Leylands growing
quite quickly, which supports the statements of the majority of the nurseries,
as NJ is the same lattitude as Pa.

Thanks
