  • Sunquat - what is that?
  • Miracle berry - almost common at nurseries further south from you.
  • Coffee - it will need shade in your summer and a greenhouse in the winter. Don't buy the indoor ornamental cultivars sold in nurseries - grow it from imported seed.
  • Tea - One of my relatives in the Philadelphia suburbs bought a 1-gallon size Camelia sinensis (Tea) from a local nursery.
  • Yerba Mate - what is that?
  • Black Pepper - both black and white pepper are made from the berries of the Chinese pepper vine.
  • true Cinnamon - grows in your greenhouse year-round.
  • Red-stemmed Sugar cane - import from Florida.
  • Variegated Vanilla - grows in your greenhouse year-round.
  • Kiwi (zone 7 hardy) - see One Green World Online Catalog.
  • Figs...nearly any variety - most of the figs I grow will die in your location.
  • Paw paws - see One Green World Online Catalog.
  • Rosa rugosa - blaeck. You'd like Loquat better.
