Hello, all,

The USDA has just released its latest edition of the climate-zone map. (I think the last version came out in 1990.) One thing will be true for many us: we're in warmer zones or sub-zones. For example, here in north-central Indiana, we are now in Zone 5b, rather than 5a.

Here's the link to the article, which contains a link to the map itself.

So Treebeard, do you feel a difference? Has it warmed up any at your place yet?

I have been upgraded as well but we still have areas within our zone that could go from 6 to 5A, we were 5B, and I will continue to work on that basis. For my area, it seems to be timing is screwed up more than anything else.
