Zone 4 newbe.

[Randy]

I'll explain why I use the term nomads. My brother worked for the State of California and would be transferred periodically throughout northern California. My older sister was married to a minister and they moved about every two years and did not always stay in California. My younger sister moved more than the others as she was married to an air force officer. Her husband is a highly intelligent fellow and taught mathematics at the air force academy in Colorado for a few years. But his job took him all over the country and even into other parts of the world. It took a long time, but my siblings finally settled in one place. That is each one settled. My younger sister and my brother live about 10 minutes away from each other in the San Jose area of California. My older sister lives with her second husband in Dallas, TX. She became a widow when her first husband died of cancer.

North of you. Depending on which map you use my area, NW Vermont is zone 4 while the mountains of central VT are zone 3. The zones are pretty loosely defined and vary from one map to another.

So ....up the street instead of down the street. Thank you, Alan. ~ I am beginning to understand zones. Does it have to do with latitudes or altitudes? ~ Curbie

I believe it is based on average winter low temps.
