That's where they should grow best. Especially northern Midwest and Canada. This was a very small plant they sent though. The one I got did not survive.

I checked my bag and find there is no information on where it's grown. Doesn't really say where it's made either. States" Distributed exclusively by BulkSupplements.com" and gives their address in Nevada. Maybe the company's web site will give you better information.

Yes. We live in Reno, Nevada (USDA Hardiness Zone 7a) and our hibiscus plants have always survived. They die back all the way to the ground during the winter but always come back as strong as ever in the spring/summer.

Yes you can safely but would recommend getting an organic Bougainvillea fertilizer. I live in a Bougainvillea friendly state, Arizona, & I use both types fertilizer. The Bougainvilla fertilizer is I believe better for Bougainvillea. :)

That stinks that you didn't get instruction's. I have this same plant and it can take good morning sun into the early afternoon but I would protect it from late afternoon sun . Bananas drink a lot of water and need fertilizer in the summer time , cut back on the watering and fertilizer in the fall. Do not feed in the winter months jut water only when soil is dry or when plant needs it. I hope this helps ..oh by the way if you make coffee t home you can put coffee grounds in the plants soil I find my banana plants like it

Sorry I don't know. I'm a resident of Virginia. Mine is a house plant. Doing very well. Not a fast grower.

Yes, cacti can be grown successfully in the Pacific NW, indoors and outdoors. You might want to Google Kara Nursery (which is closing, but the people who run it are in your area and they are keeping a blog going on growing cacti in your zone), and check out local chapters of the Cactus and Succulent Society of America. Wishing you the best with your garden!

Chris Not sure on this one.. I believe it will but not all do. I have several dwarf banana plants and one I had produced fruit after two years or so.. The one I purchased a few months ago from Amazon is way to small so far but have found that if you give them lots of sun/water in summer and very little water in winter because they will have root rot if watered too much in house in winter, just when you notice soil is too dry, buy a soil water meter if you don't have one. Mine has grown like a weed since I received and looks great. Hope this helps you.. any other questions feel free to ask.. I would buy again! Robert

I'm sorry I wish that I could answer your question. I see that this zip is for New York. I would think that since it is tropical, it may not work for you. I would try Emerald Goddess Gardens where I ordered from. I must say this plant has growed pretty rapidly. I've only had a couple of blooms. I planted mine in a pot so that I can bring in during the winter. I want to think I read somewhere it wasn't very cold hardy and thats why I planted in a pot. I'm so sorry I couldn't be more help. Good Luck!!

The trees were planted about 9 months ago in Mariposa CA. It gets very hot there 100+ or - and cold in winter. so far so good. I believe it is also zone 9

Yes - ours is doing beautifully and already has new growth. We planted in the ground and have kept moist. We live in Nashville. I believe it will grow very well.

I likve in NM and my grandpa grew it here. I bought the seeds to put it on the other side of my yard and it seems to do good with same amount of water as I give my lawn. I may just have Grandpa's green thumb i don't know.

They should grow great there. Like others have said, you will need full sun (at least 6 hours per day,) for bloom.

Absolutely. In fact it will thrive in that location. You may even be able to direct seed and I would image it will naturalize in your climate. I would suggest starting some indoors as well as direct seeding just to be safe. Good luck and thank you for helping to save our Monarch Butterfly population in North America!

You need to goggle the type of tree you have. Then find out the zone it is tolerant in. Just like any plant they tolerate a maximum temperature and a minimum temperature. Living here in California the shrub does well. So for instance if you live where the temperature gets below the plant tolerance you need to bring it in. Remember when you bring it in does not mean it will do well. You might need some natural light or heat on it. The internet can tell you exactly what your plant needs including water. Good Luck
