Title: Gardening Zone?
Post by: phoenixgirl on Apr 07, 07, 06:46:10 AM

What is the gardening zone for Wrightwood?  when I check online it keeps bringing up zones that also cover rancho cucamonga and upland?  Any help will be appreciated.

The main 2 types of hardiness zones are the U. S. D. A. zones and the Sunset Gardening zones.
When I mail order plants, I ususally write the approximate dates of the first and last freezes of the year on the order form, and note the elevation and the northern aspect.
What's your project?

thanks for your info.  I moved to a new home and want to put in a front yard filled with flowers, a lawn  just much prettier than plain dirt.  :)
