Up to the zone means from "warmer climates up to the zone". The zones in
the northern hemisphere are from south (Florida is 10) to north (Alaska's
North Slope is 1). So, when you say up to zone 4, it is from below up to
zone 4. This makes it 10 to 4 and not 1-4.
Sorry, Debbie, but your statement is incorrect. A plant that will live in
zone 4 will not survive in zone 1. Alex
