Camay123,

I think there is a little misunderstanding here. You live in a
4b/5a zone, but CANADIAN Zone.

Clrosner lives in a 6/7 zone, USDA zone, which is about 8/9 zone for us in Canada. USDA zone and Canadian zonal systems are not the same...

You can check this out:

So when you refer to Ulmus parvifolia that are hardy for 5b zone are you talking about US or Canadian zone system?? Because this could mean something like zone 7 for Canada.

Just a tought,
