   When I bought two dozen Beach Plum from the New Hampshire Conservation 
Service, Dave Griffin said that he didn't think they'd survive my zone 3 
Winter.  As it turns out, he was right........................for the wrong 
reason(?).  Last Winter they survived -38 F and the temperature dropped to 
only -25 F this past Winter.  Now, a few of them are alive, but barely. 
Does anyone have a guess as to what might have did them in?
