Ag Canada has developed 8 plant hardiness zones for those living in Canada and they seem to be more useful than the USDA plant hardiness zones which only take into consideration the average minimum winter temperature.

Can you direct me (us) to an easy place to find these zones? I haven't had much luck locating a map. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places.
Thanks! "... one is nearer God's heart in a garden than any place else on earth." |

Ag Canada took a lot more into consideration when developing these zones than the USDA did. All the USDA considered is the average minimum winter temperature as reported to them by NOAA. The new USDA zones are based on a much smaller sampling (NOAA has closed about half of the old reporting stations) than the 1960 zones did.
