Hi,
I am shocked about the Clapps.
We are much further north than you (sw Ontario) and the Clapps gets no
frost damage.
We are in Canadian hardiness zone 6a, which I think relates to zone 5 in
the U.S.. Our winters are moderated by the Great Lakes, but boy do we get
wind!
What is the difference?
Later,
Tom
