I am in Kansas, zone 5, and planted glads on the east side of the house as
annuals. They have come back for two years, and NO they weren't the hardy
glads. I would give it a try as though it was a zone 7.

I know some of the McBane family who came from Guthrie. We were in the
service together in 58 - 63. Then I lost track of him until about 9 years
ago. He lives in Sparks now and we drive past Guthrie at least once a year.
I also have a cousin that ropes out the big arena there.

I'm going to retire soon, and I'm going home where I grew up, in
Guthrie. One of the things I want to do--besides teach (I'm a music
teacher)--is gardening. I remember how beautiful both sets of
grandparents' gardens were. I have been collecting seed catalogs for
this purpose.

Problem is, I can't figure out what growing zone Guthrie is in, whether
it's 7a or 6b, since there's a little bump in the chart, just above
Oklahoma City where Guthrie is. (In the Stokes catalog, for example.)

Anyone know about this?

Thanks,
Connie
