    Gardening in the PNW!
    What is a good website to learn what plants I can plant in my yard, how to care for them, what time of year to plant? I live in the Pacific Northwest so a site that is specific to my area and easy to understand would be great. Thanks.

    Hi ChihuahuaMomma! I live in Port Angeles,(a bit north of you! Looking at the information gnahcd posted, that puts me in 'zone 4' - couldn't see Vancouver on that map, if you are in zone 4 too, my info may be helpful... ) I've always had success with:
    Peonies
    Lupine
    Hostas
    Rhodies
    Daffodils
    Tulips
    Crocus
    Dahlias
    Iris
    Lilac
