Use this map to find your USDA Hardiness Zone, a great guide to help you select plants that will thrive in your yard.
Climate Maps
Creating an attractive garden means more than coordinating colors and selecting eye-catching varieties. Aesthetics don't mean much if weather conditions wild, freeze, or decay tender plants.
Climate maps, such as the USDA Hardiness Zone map, show low-temperature extremes by Zone. Choose plants best adapted to your Zone and plant them at the right time to increase your chance of success.
Use climate maps as a general guide; many microclimates may exist within a 1-mile radius of your home. Even within your yard, variations in exposure and topography can affect plants.
