I live in Zone 8b. If plants/trees suggest they grow best in Zone 2 to 7, would that be a bad choice for Zone 8?
A range of 2-7 implies that a zone warmer than 7 may be too warm in winter for the plant to thrive. The second number, as in 2-7, indicates that the plant needs cold-induced dormancy to trigger spring growth and blooms. So, if grown in zone 8, it may not flower. To double check, search the internet for the plant's heat zone. Confusing!

Hi I am just trying to learn what edible garden zone I am in. I would like to year round plant here possible. 95820
Here is a website from looking up your agricultural zone. https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/PHZMWeb/
Also search from your state's Extension Service. You'll find planting calendars for your location and a wealth of information on what grows well in your area.

Trying to find some out side plants for my area. I would like hanging baskets for my porch. My front faces the north west.
Dallas is in hardiness zone 8a. Before picking flowers, watch the sun and see how many hours per day that the area gets. The winter sun is lower and the exposure may be less than in summer. Here is a link to a good resource for growing flowers in your area. http://www.ccmgatx.org/gardening-resources/plants-for-collin-county/perennials-annuals.aspx
What zone do I live in 95240?
Lodi California is in hardiness zone 9b. There are now Heat zone maps that help gardeners know what areas are too hot to grow some plants. You can find more info about zones at http://www.ahsgardening.org/gardening-resources/gardening-maps
I need to know how long I have to grow things, when I can plant both tender and hardy plants and when to expect a soft freeze and a hard freeze.
Explore the gardening section of Michigan's Cooperative Extension Service, run by MSU. Here is the homepage: https://www.canr.msu.edu/home_gardening/
The frost-free date is found here: https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/when_can_i_plant_check_your_areas_frost_free_date
The start date to the gardening season depends on what you are growing. Some flowers like pansies can take frost. So call the "cool season" vegetables like peas, beets, and lettuces and these can often be planted soon after St. Patrick's Day depending on weather. If winter hangs on and soil is wet and cold wait another week or two. Plants like annual flowers, tomatoes, cukes and corn- some of the "warm season" vegetables, don't get put out until the soil has warmed to 60 degrees. Putting them out sooner will set them back, if not kill them. That is often approximately the first week in June. Frost returns in October, mid October for me in SE Michigan. I hope you find the extension service website helpful. There is an office in your county where you can pick up brochures or talk to a Master Gardener.
