What's your plant hardiness zone? New map more specific
This map divides the country into zones according to winter temperatures and is designed as a tool to assist in plant selection for different regions of the country. Each zone differs from the next by 10 degrees Fahrenheit, and the larger the zone number, the warmer the winters in that area. Whether or not you are a gardener, you've probably heard of the United States Department of Agriculture's Plant Hardiness Zone Map. If you look at a close-up of the Austin region, you'll notice that quite a large area west of MoPac Boulevard (Loop 1) and north of Bee Cave Road is actually Zone 9a, which means that it's warmer than the surrounding area. Though most of Austin remains in Zone 8b, where we were in the old map, if you zoom in on our region you'll see some slight differences. Many areas of the country are now in a warmer USDA zone than they were on the old map, but most of Central Texas remains unchanged. Some winters we might not see temperatures that cold, but we could just as easily experience an extreme weather event where temperatures might fall well below our normal range. If you are a gardener, you've most likely already adjusted your plant selections to account for the changing weather.
