HARDINESS ZONE MAP
This USDA map divides the country into plant hardiness zones based on average lowest winter temperatures as shown in the chart. Zone boundary lines are not absolute. Temperatures and wind chills can vary. You should consider local conditions like hills, valleys, rainfall, wind, snow coverage and soil. For instance, a certain plant may survive fi ne in Zone 3 in Maine, but not in North Dakota, simply be- cause of differences in rainfall, wind chill or humidity. So be fl exible. Use this information as a guide when local information is not available to super- cede it.
