Absolutely adore that 'Chief Joseph' pine, what is its zone hardiness? Wouldn't I love to find a spot for that here.

My agave infatuation will be put to the test this winter. Some will stay outside, the more tender ones will come inside. In either case, they'll receive little to no attention from me during the winter. I kill most houseplants so we'll see if they survive. <br />Is it starting to feel like fall in your neck of the woods yet?outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-24168143664270144482012-09-03T18:01:43.605-07:002012-09-03T18:01:43.605-07:00The weeping Cedrus has always been a major lust fo...The weeping Cedrus has always been a major lust for me, but my Zone denies me the pleasure of getting intimate with it [were it cheaper,and had I the necessary acerage, I might consider it!] I did give pause at the gorgeous blossom of H.p 'Le Vesterival' though! Tired to death of Vanilla Strawberry and Limelight, this one looks promising but sadly is not yet available north of the border. I wonder if P.c 'Chief Joseph' is similar to one that a gardening friend grows - hers was labelled simply 'Joey.' Perhaps 'he' has improved his station in life recently and now prefers Chief Joseph'? I do like the looks of A. 'Blue Frost' most definitely!
