Do Zones change? When I subscribed to these lists, I had forgotten what
the Master Gardener course taught me, so I looked it up in a gardening book
I had - it showed I was on the border line between Zone 5/6. Then
yesterday, I happened to glance at the zones in a Birds & Blooms magazine
and it showed I was definitely in Zone 7. I went back to the book
(America's Garden Book, by Bush-Brown) and discovered this was a map
printed in 1936 by the US Dept. of Agriculture.
I do recall Master Gardener taught me that Oklahoma was split east & west
and north and south for plant growing conditions and Oklahoma City was
right at the junction where these different growing conditions meet.
Until I subscribed to these lists I paid no attention to the Zone. I
learned from experience what grew good for me and what didn't.
