Tee, what a great article. I can only imagine how hard it is to start over in a completely new zone/area. The plants in your pictures are beautiful so you're definitely on the right track!

Great article. I live in Nashville and wondered where you are located. Just send me a private message and let me know if you prefer not to mention your city. There is a gathering I want to tell you about coming up soon that you might be interested in if you live anywhere near me.
