Re: Seedlings everywhere!

Hello Chris,
    Where is Tomahawk in relation to Madison? I will be there the first week
of October to give a slide presentation at Olbrich gardens. All day
symposium. I am told you guys has some very strange weather patterns and
winter cold hardiness zones up there due to the lakes.
