| Hi All!
As there is no "Maryland" garden forum... looks like ya'll are the closest...
I'm moving to Southern Maryland (Leonardtown area) in late January. It looks to me the zone there is 7 (or 6B)- but I'm not sure.
Here in Huntsville, Alabama - the zone is 7. I'm bringing several Japanese Maples, buddleias and other shrubs with me - as I REFUSE to leave them behind.
Would anyone like to chime in and tell me what to expect with my new Maryland gardening adventure?
Thanks so much... Meadow Lark |

| Hi Meadowlark - you'll find the Marylanders in the "Mid-Atlantic" forum. I haven't gardened in Leonardtown, but I didn't find PG County (an hour or so drive north of Leonardtown) much different from No. Va where I am now - mostly zone 7. Good luck with your move! |

| Hi Meadow Lark, Welcome to Maryland, Leonardtown area is a strong 7b especially south of there in the Breton Bay area where my girlfriend lives. I would say with confidence it is probaly one of the warmest areas in the state during the winter months, I live on the eastern shore and commute there frequently. It is a beautiful area and if you like the water you will be very content with St. Mary's County. |

| Thanks so much for the info! I'll miss NE Alabama so much - but it will be fun learning about gardening in a new state! Maryland bound... Meadow Lark |
