As a former resident of the San Fernando Valley ( Northridge)now living
in Orange County, I did a lot of gardening there. No, the Sunset
Gardening Zones are not the same as the zones generally referred to by
gardeners. You are probably in Zone 9. Your selection of plants for this
time of year was good except for the peppers. They are a warm season
plant, and may freeze this time of the year, especially in this very wet,
cool weather southern California has had this winter. Otherwise they may
just sit there and not grow until it warms up some, probably in April. I
usually planted peppers and tomatoes no earlier than the first of April.

Happy gardening. It's a lot of fun. I got hooked on it almost 50 years
ago.
