Jim,
The map at the WI Herbarium site shows it growing in Iowa, Lafayette, and
Rock counties in southern WI. Will it grow farther north? I don't know;
but, if you could find someone in those areas who could provide seed from
that provenance, they might be your best bet to thrive or survive in your site.
