Region and climate

Seasonal timing depends on where you garden. Every seasonal guide here names the region or hardiness zone it was written for, and advice for one region should not be applied to another without checking local conditions.

USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map: Look up your hardiness zone by ZIP code. Zones describe average winter lows, not frost dates or heat.
Land-grant university website directory (USDA NIFA): Find your state's land-grant university, the home of its Cooperative Extension gardening guidance.
