USDA Zones

Go back to list of Care Sheets.

The USDA Hardiness Zone Chart is a helpful guide to determine the type of winter protection you will need to provide for your plants. Each zone is based on the average lowest recorded temperatures in a given region. The lower the number, the colder the winters and the more mulch you'll need to use.

Our nursery is located in Eagle Creek, OR, just 35 miles southeast of Portland.
