New USDA plant hardiness zone map


I had heard that a revision was in the works, and it has been eagerly awaited by gardeners.
The 2012 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map is the standard by which gardeners and growers can determine which plants are most likely to thrive at a location. The map is based on the average annual minimum winter temperature, divided into 10-degree F zones.
The embed above is a static image, but if you go to this USDA page, you can access an interactive map with detailed state maps.


Most locations in the US are now in warmer zones; we've gone from 4b to 5a in just the last ten years.
