G. NOT HARDY IN MINNESOTA. The following group contains 

 plants which are not hardy when used in the Minnesota section. These 

 plants are generally in one of three groups: the early spring-flow-

 ripen their wood late in the fall. As a result of years of experience in 

 landscape planting, these types have not proved hardy, although many 

 of them are extremely hardy when used throughout the northwestern
