Hello all,

I've been on this list off and on for the past four years. Well, I'm back on again! : )

My name Dana lone Hill. I currently live in South Dakota, zone 4, and I'm working as a IT tech person for a school. I'm orginally from SD so it's good to be back. But I forgot how cold it can get, especially when the wind kicks up.

Sadly, all the trees I had have died. 2003 was a rough time for me personally and I didn't take care of them like I should have. Looking back, I should have kept at it or given them to someone who could take care of them.

On the bright side, I'm starting over. I'm also looking for new trees. Cedars, pines, junipers, and yes, even a serissa or two. : ) Any tree that can live in a zone 3 or 4 I'm taking a look at. Any ideas on zone 3, 4 trees would be appreciated.

I've also found out that there are azalea's that can stand a SD winter, it's a hybrid developed by the University of Minnesota. So I might give one or two of them a try.

It's good to be back. Glad to see both old and new people on the list.

BTW. I just bought this serissa at a mall in a mica pot with stones glued on top, and I was wondering..... (Just kidding) : )
