Zone 3A is generally considered Calgary's plant hardiness zone, but to determine which plants grow successfully in Calgary depends on more than the plant hardiness zone of the city. Soil quality, sun or shade, and relative moisture and drainage, all factor into which plants to consider for your garden. If your garden site gets full sun and is not prone to excessive moisture, you may consider the Eryngium alpinum - provided your soil is moderately fertile and has good drainage!
