The elevation and resulting climate is so variable around here, I seriously don't know what "zone" I am considered to live in. My zip code pulls up 5-7. I've seen some maps that put me at zone 5b and others zone 7. 6 or 6b really is closer to the temperatures we had in the last couple of winters, so I'm simply guessing. Last winter was supposedly the coldest on record, but the cold spells were interspersed with more mild days than I remember from the year before.

In terms of protection, whatever this tree is has the fireplace back within a few feet and is close to the over hang of the house. It also has two ever green shrubs in front of it. I really need to dig the camera out from wherever it's got to. Probably if I could produce a picture of the real thing, some one here could say, "Oh that's a --."

Whatever it is, I've never had one before.
