For the record I am NOT correcting Gabe. Still zone 6 Denver is way different for example than zone 6 New Jersey. In Denver it could get down to say 20 F with snow and be 70 the next day. I've seen it (Aroura anyway). Here I believe the cold is more consistant. So the point is you have to consider more than just zones and that certain microclimates( shelterd area next to south facing wall for example) will improve your chances of success. Keep trying , Good luck.
