Planting Considerations For Zone 9

Of all the plant hardiness zones you can find in the US, this one is one of the most complex. Not only is it one of the hottest climates in the Americas, but it's also one of the driest. The lack of freezing temperatures complicates things further since cold-tolerant plants rarely do as well during mild winters.

Before you select plants for your warmer garden, consider:


1. Your local microclimate. Do you live in a frost pocket, or are you under lots of shade?

2. Rainfall averages. How much do you get per year?

3. Your soil quality. Does it hold on to nutrients well? Does it need a little support?

TN Nursery stocks a variety of plants in this curated collection. No more guessing about which ones survive and thrive in your area - we've done the heavy lifting so you can simply pick your favorites.

Our Favorite Plants For Various Zones

On the hunt for a heat-tolerant flower? Excited about finding a fruiting shrub? TN Nursery offers an extensive collection especially assembled for warm, dry ecosystems.

A few fan-favorites of this collection include:

Blue hydrangea: It's hard to go wrong with this colorful classic, especially if you're looking to spruce up the visual presentation of your yard.
Winterberry: Even if it doesn't get cold where you're at, you can celebrate the season with the bright red color of the winterberry.
Plum tree: For sweet, juicy stone fruits fresh out of the garden, look no further than the drought-tolerant plum tree.
