I am in high elevation (7,400ft) New Mexico. Cool Summers with a short
season. Cox does well here. I was under the impression that it is limited
both by summer heat and winter hardiness where it is cool enough in the
summer, therefor hard to grow in most places without a large body of water
moderating the temperatures. Theoretically we occasionally get test winters
with -30, I haven't been here long enough, so far most winters the low is -10.
