Northern Hardy Plants

We want to help you find the right cedar species for your location. Using the USDA Plant Hardiness Zones, we provide you clear maps to help you make the best decision and find the right cultivar.

How it works:

Make sure you zoom in to see the colors on the maps.

Red Zone: Zone where the tree can survive but is risking important damage every five years. Winter protection is necessary.

Yellow Zone: Zone where the tree will usually survive but is risking damage every ten years. Winter protection is recommanded.

Green Zone : Zone where the tree will usually thrive. Winter protection is not necessary most of the time.
