How  Does  the  USDA  Zone    Map  Work?    The USDA Zone Map helps you determine if a plant can survive outdoors over the winter. The zones are based on the average low temperatures for an area across the United States. The lower the zone number, the colder the average low temperatures are. How  Does  the  USDA  Zone  Map  Help  Me?      If you know your plant hardiness zone, you will be able to choose plants for your garden/yard that have a reasonable chance of survival. For example, if you live in Zone 3 and plant a palm tree that is appropriate for Zone 8 and above, there is a good chance come spring you’ll have one dead palm tree to cut down!
