What are Plant Hardiness Zones?

Plant hardiness zones are a system used by gardeners, landscapers, and agriculturalists to help determine which plants are best suited for a specific location. The map of the United States is commonly broken up into 11 zones ranging from zone 1A (the most cold-hardy) to zone 11B (the least cold-hardy). The exact borders of each zone are based on the average minimum winter temperature in that region.

This plant hardiness zone map shows the range of temperatures where plants can survive the winter. The plant hardiness zone is determined by the minimum temperatures and the minimum number of days in a year where the minimum temperature is reached.
