USDA ZONE MAP | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
For beginning gardeners, a USDA zone map can be a really handy tool to help you understand what vegetable and flower seeds will thrive in the area in which you live. Because regions of the United States vary so much in terms of climate and seasonal changes, it's important to know what to plant and when to plant it. At 2B Seeds, we want you to have the best possible gardening experience with our high quality flower seeds, vegetable seeds and herb seeds. Simply use the color key to determine your zone. Happy sowing! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map Zones 2-10 in the map have been subdivided into light and dark corored sections (a and b) that represent 5F (2.8C) differences within the 10F (5.6C) zone. The light color of each zone represents the colder section; the dark color, the warmer section. Zone 11 represents any area where the average annual minimum temperature is above 40F (4.4C). The map shows 20 latitude and longitude lines. Areas above an arbitrary elevation are traditionally concidered unsuitable for plant cropping and do not bear appropiate zone designations. There are also island zones that, because of elevation differences, are warmer or cooler than the surrounding ares and are given a different zone designation. Note that many large urban aresa carry a warmer zone designation than the surrounding countryside. The map contains as much detail as possible, considering the vast amount of data on which it is based and its size. |
