USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map (PHZM)

<p>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.</p> <p>For the first time, the map is available as an interactive GIS-based map, for which a broadband Internet connection is recommended, and as static images for those with slower Internet access. Users may also simply type in a ZIP Code and find the hardiness zone for that area.</p> <p>No posters of the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map have been printed. But state, regional, and national images of the map can be downloaded and printed in a variety of sizes and resolutions. </p><div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map.</p> <p>File Name: Web Page, url: <a href="https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/pages/view-maps">https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/pages/view-maps</a> </p><p>Includes interactive, static, and georeferenced maps, map and data downloads, and information about plant hardiness zones in the United States.</p></li></ul><p></p>
