Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Ugh, so sorry, Aaron.

Nurseries are going to have to indicate minimum temps when they call something "cold hardy".
People are getting so confused.

Hi Aaron,

I think your weather sticker is 'more' broken....it says 85F now. :D

That Y. faxoniana looks OK......beat up but OK. What source is this second faxoniana from?

Thanks Barb.

That is so true, the term "Cold Hardy" is used very loose these days. :lol:

Tomarrow it is going to be more broke...90f. We are starting to get that warm weather that Barb has been in. :D

The second Faxon, the one in the pic is from High Country Gardens, Zone 5 Yucca faxoniana. Of cource that was it's first year, but it was covered. We will see what it does next year. :|
