Hi Squirrel! I'm about 30 minutes from Harrisburg. We should get together with Jocyln in Philly and trade some of our plants. Hmmm, since I'm in between the two of you we should meet at my house so I can get expert advice on what the heck I'm doing! Actually, I really would love to meet up with other local gardeners and definitely have some yucca to give away for anyone interested. Great thread!

Good to see another red clay dweller.

I'm from South Dakota. I live in the north east corner, where a big thing people say is, "40 below keeps the riff-raff out." I haven't seen 40 below much, but it does get really cold here some years.

born and raised south floridian- zone 10b. moved up north 4 years ago and now reside in NE PA zone 6a (i'm pretty sure). i love having seasons and growing tulips, and all the seasonal stuff but sometimes i sure do miss the citrus trees, my passionflower vine, frangipani and other year round tropicals.

WV about 35 minutes from Pittsburgh, PA

South central South Dakota here! Not usually as cold as northeast corner, but pretty close!

Rochester, NY...The Flower City! Home of the annual Lilac Festival!

I am from Lafayette NY

hey!! Staten Island, NY here--"the forgotten borough" nobody seems to notice that we are just 1 bridge away from the Manhattan part of NYC! SI ROCKS!!!

Denver, CO!!! Hot hot hot in the summer, sometimes cold in the winter - but mostly a lovely place to live (for the weather anyway)
:rolleyes:

Born and brought up in London, I still live here and I love it!! However I am originally from Bangladesh - my father emigrated here in the Seventies.

Hi everyone

From Edmonton, Alberta here, nice to see a few canucks lingering in the forums!! But, no matter everyone here is super friendly!!

So cheers everyone!!

I'm in Encinitas, EN-CIN-KNEE-DISS, which is actually San Diego. I'm in the northern (coolest) part.
My area is called North County Coastal, about 3 miles from the beach.
I mean cool temperature-wise !

I'm in the middle of nowhere, make a right and you're there! Better known as Caswell County, NC! And we love it!!

We have about 8 acres in a large county that only has a little over 21,000 people and the biggest town only has a poplulation of about 2,000; that's the county seat! There are now 3, yup! count 'em, 3 stop lights in the county! I tell everyone, I'm Southern by choice, not by birth!

I am from the Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia. Long hot summers and cool winters. Lots of vineyards.

About 20 miles North of Wilmington, North Carolina and about 2 miles from the Ocean. Lots of nice things about the area, but from a growing standpoint I have mostly sand to work with in the yard which means lots of mushroom compost.

I live on a farm south of Iroquois SD. Closest neighbor is 2 miles away and I love it!!! Temp today--102!

HI! Long Island NY here. 7 miles from beach, one hour from NYC and 1 1/2 hours from ski slopes. Great location in that regard, but you pay out the (you know what) for it. Crowded, crowded, crowded, and incase I wasn't clear... CROWDED. I moved here from Queens in the very early 70's and it was spacious, oh boy what a change now. So sad, really. Weather bites.. summer too hot and humid, winters freezing, springs are alright if you don't blink and miss them and the autumn is beautiful.

Hi!
I call home South Florida. I was born in southern Georgia, but raised in Miami (always no more than 10 miles from the beach). Over the years I have lived in Chicago (Evanston), New Jersey (the shore area) and Detroit. I had my first vegetable garden in Detroit in the early 90s. Had tomatoes and cucumbers (they grew great) and planted begonias and dahlias I got from the local farmers market. It was always sad to see them wither during the winter months.
Now I'm back in S. Florida and have almost year-round growing and have gotten back into planting and watching things grow. Digging in the dirt helps relieve stress and I get a beautiful flower in return.

WE are a big tourist town and have a ski resort, so we had better get some more snow and soon, the hills are open to ski on, the resort was lucky to have some really cold days to blow a good base, but if we dont get more, that willl be gone too.

I hope it snows soon because you folks seem to need it
