I assume you'll be establishing a new teaching practice, so how does that count as "retirement?" I can't imagine you'll be any less invested in the little horrors. (meant entirely lovingly, of course!) Re the zone, I'd consider it a risk to try zone 6 plants, as apparently you will be quite close to the fuzzy edge. Although you will of course learn more about the real micro-climate when you find a place. cheers! -E If she is on the zone 6/7 border zone 6 plants should be no problem. The smaller the zone number the colder. -- Travis in Shoreline (just North of Seattle) Washington USDA Zone 8 Sunset Zone 5 |
