               Carl, You're right, last summer was terrible here on Cape Breton for growing and I'm still surprised how well they grew.That's why I am trying to get you to plant one for fun. I don't think FP's need the heat like AG's. And YES Mom did it, and thanks to Scott she has a great AG seed and claims she is going to whoop my AG butt with this year with...

               From the looks of the last two WR AGs 1 in northern Wisconsin & the other in Canada,I dont think the AGs need the heat.
