Pond PLant Regions/Zones - Aquarium Advice

Jaxom_Ruatha · 02-24-2005, 08:39 PM

I want to find out what zone (or whatever the term is for it) I live in so that I can find out if certain plants would survive in my pond.

Does anyone know of a site better than this one http://www.swedesdock.com/pondzone.sht because it just does not seem right.

This one is better, planting zones are the same for pond/terrestrial plants.

I'm in MD, zone 6b/7a.

You are lucky there is a lot of stuff you can grow.

You are Welcome, J_R. I've used that map for a reference many times, and feel it's pretty good. Any plants that have died in my pond/yard, I believe were my fault, not the fault of the zone map.
