Hi Barb,
Depending on where one lives in Alaska, one might be in Zone 1 to 8. If you are in Zone 3, however, this is the coldest limit of this cultivar, and your plants should do fine. (You might want to offer a little winter protection, such as a thick layer of mulch, especially that first winter to protect the roots as they establish themselves.) Choose a site that has full sun, as you have, and make sure that they have well-drained, loamy soil. The plants have shallow roots and do best in even moisture. Now into early fall is a good time to plant.
