I live in zone 5 The picture is very nice what is the flower? I am new to DG since last May
I have lived in Oak Harbor and in Camas, Washougal. In 1968 I lived in Tacoma, for 11 years in Yakima till I moved here 7 years ago. I enjoy the surrounding trees on the mountains. At times I would like to live in a warmer zone. I am trying to find seeds to plant to help make my place look pretty since I am low income I think the least expensive way to go is this way. I have a lot of hollyhocks and seeds that I trade with.
Have any of you in zone 8 tried to grow Kiwi plants? I wanted too but I understand that I need 1 male to 3 female to make them fruit. I also understand they won't survive the cold and wind so don't know if they would grow here. I have 4 colors of hollhock here is a picture of them. sorry I clicked on my Cockatiel and thought it was my hollyhocks
