Planting Considerations For Zone 9

Of all the plant hardiness zones in the U.S., 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 the following:

1. Your local microclimate. Do you live in a frost pocket or 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 which ones survive and thrive in your area—we've done the heavy lifting, so you can simply pick your favorites.
