Hello from Kyiv and Shatura, Ukraine

Post by TT » Tue Sep 24, 2013 11:22 am

Hello everyone. Let me introduce myself. My name is Taras. I live in Kyiv, but I have a garden in the village of Shatura (100 km east of Kyiv, USDA zone 6a/5b), where I collect different species of trees an shrubs (something like private botanical garden). I want to introduce many new species of trees an shrubs, which will be able to withstand my climate conditions, but which are absent in Ukrainian botanical gardens; also I want to grow hardy palms with the winter protection.

Welcome! I've never been to Ukraine but my brother married a woman from Lviv so I hear from them about your country.
Lots of good information on this forum about winter protection.
