Landscaping at altitude can have it's challenges with the plants, but there are several that are able to withstand the conditions (with minimal loss). Protecting new plants from wildlife also becomes an issue in the mountains around here, especially if you're in a less developed area. I would definitely make sure the plants are suitable for the elevation and not the perfect food source for animals. Nurseries out here provide this information and usually have printouts for homeowners with the same concerns. We're around 5,400' but can head west for 20 minutes and be above 8,000.' As far as the warranty, I'd suggest replacing at T & M as mentioned above.
