Some sights say I'm zone 6, some say zone 7 and some say "Zone 6-7" LOL I'll settle for what I was last year...zone 6b |

My area is a confusing array of zones, lots of microclimates LOL ![]() I chose 7b, because some places say I'm zone 7, and others zone 8 I have had a lot of luck growing zone 8 plants. Blink- that means that you are on the cooler side of the zone 8 average winter lows. At least that's the way I interpret it

Found an EXCELLENT site for looking up your zone. http://home.ivillage.com/gardening/zonefinder Wikipedia also has good information.. |

I'm never 100% sure as to what my zone information is. I think I am about 8a in that map... but I'd love some reassurance. I live around Beaverton, OR. Edit: that last site I just looked at really helped. Now I'm pretty sure I'm zone 8. |

Also check with your extension service at http://extension.oregonstate.edu/washington/ I live in Eugene, which most zone finders put in zone 7, but the people at the Lane Extension Service told me we're in zone 8b. |

I'm in the really small area of 8b in the panhandle. Alabama is only 15 to 30 minutes away depending which part I'm going to. |
