August 16, 2023Q.Can We Get An Updated Plant Zone For Indiana?
I noticed that the plant zones for Indiana are based back in 2012. And I can already say a lot has changed from them already for the plant zones in Indiana. I'm able to keep certain plants outside now like my Chinese windmill palm also known as trachycarpus fortunei outside for really most of the year. And I'm also able to keep other types of palms outside which tells me the plant zones are changing.so I wanted to see if there could be anyway possible to get an more updated plant zone for Indiana? Was even able to keep my majesty palm out for most of the year as well.

Certified ExpertA.You can read about the climatological data here. It is based on 30-year averages and you have the most recent zone.

October 14, 2023Q.What Zone Is Western New York In?
I'm trying to grow both my money plant & prayer plant inside. My windows aren't in the best location, & I was also wondering about grow lights to be successful. So far both are growing well. Lastly, I feel I need to either prune some extra leaves off my money plant or else transfer it to a larger pot to accommodate the extra leavings. Sorry for so many questions but I want my plants to be happy.

Certified ExpertA.Western New York is in USDA zones 5 and 6. Your tree does look like it needs repotting; roots are forming above the soil. Here is information about caring for a prayer plant and a money plant, as well as choosing supplemental light.

Certified ExpertA.Yes. In conversion from our system to yours, you would be the equivalent of our zone 8 through 9b. Keep that in mind when browsing our articles.

January 6, 2024Q.Climate Zones
How can one determine their "zone" when radical swings in temps have become the norm? Once again San Antonio has suffered a hard freeze. Before replanting What zone should they be using?

Certified ExpertA.San Antonio is in USDA hardiness zone 8, with average minimum winter temperatures of 10 to 20 degrees F. So hard freezes are possible. If you are buying plants rated for zone 8, they should be OK. If your area has experienced temperatures below 10 degrees F., I would up the zone on new plant purchases to 7 to be on the safe side.
