Thanks for the info guys.....I was doing some reading and thought that I could grow Maypops. I have about 120 feet of 6 foot tall chainlink fence I'd like to do something with...Even though (according to 1990 Zone map) I'm on the 5b/6a border, the temps here rarely ever go below 0 (in my area, the chance of going below 0 is the same as going above 100). So, I figured I could order an already rooted plant and try it this year and see what happens by next summer.
I was even thinking of trying out the giant granadilla (read somewhere it was hardy to z6) and seeing what happens.
