Canadian Hardiness Zone map

Ottawa, ON(Zone 5a)

Please forgive if this is posted twice. I thought I sent it, but it didn't show up either on the forum or in my messages sent; so I'll try it again.

I've stumbled on a really easy to use Canadian Zone map on Ag Canada's site.

What I like about this map is that you can select a small area of Canada (draw a box around it) and it zooms right in making it very easy to see which zone applies even it one lives close to a dividing line.

I think it is the same one that Christine (Ceedub) has given to us in the past. I agree with you Ann, it is an excellent reference.

Mississauga, ON(Zone 6a)

Thank you Ann, this is the best one I've seen yet.

What I like is that you can keep clicking on it to enlarge. Good feature, as sometimes it can be hard to tell where one ends and the next starts when it's the full map.

St. John's, NL(Zone 5b)

This is the first time I've seen the map...pretty detailed but they show St. John's as a zone 5a, not a zone 5b and certainly we are 5b if not a 6a. Meanwhile, the western part of the Avalon peninsula they show as 5b when in fact, they are 5a. So there are still a few tweaks that are needed.
