I concur with Ginger- I live a mile from Georgia and about 15 miles from Alabama. A southeast forum would be a much better fit than peninsular Florida. Being able to hear from other folks what kind of microclimate they needed to grow things on the edge of acceptability would be wonderful.
Just on that issue alone, I have big, beautiful stands of Mountain Laurel up by my northern creek. They are on an exposed bluff overlooking the creek from the south edge so they get the colder winds and exposure than other things on my property. The plants are huge and have been there for decades. Never thought I could have that here, but It's there!
