Know Your Growing Zone.

Instantly discover your USDA Hardiness Zone, first and last frost dates, and frost-safe planting period anywhere in the world.

Global plant hardiness and frost data for real-world growing decisions

Check your USDA Hardiness Zone, first and last frost dates, frost-free season and planting calendar anywhere in the world with recent global climate data.

WhatsMy.Zone helps gardeners, growers, plant sellers, landscapers, farmers, and developers understand local growing conditions anywhere in the world. Instead of showing only a general climate label, the service combines USDA Hardiness Zone data with practical frost information: estimated last frost date, first frost date, frost-free season length, and frost-safe planting period.

This matters because plant hardiness is only one part of successful growing. A location may have a suitable winter minimum temperature for a perennial plant, but still have a short growing season, late spring frosts, early autumn freezes, or a frost pattern that makes timing difficult. By combining hardiness zones with frost dates, WhatsMy.Zone gives a more useful picture of when plants can safely grow outdoors.

Many existing USDA zone maps focus mainly on the United States or use broad regional data. Our hardiness zone finder is built for global use, so you can check growing conditions for cities, villages, gardens, nurseries, farms, balconies, greenhouses, and delivery destinations around the world.

The data is delivered on an approximately 1 kilometre grid, helping the service reflect local climate variation more precisely than broad national or regional maps.

Climate is changing, and hardiness zones are shifting. Accurate and recent climate data is becoming more important for gardeners, landscapers, growers, farmers, and green space managers who find that traditional planting recommendations no longer fully reflect current conditions.

WhatsMy.Zone uses recent climate-based calculations to provide information that is better aligned with modern growing, landscaping, agriculture, plant shopping, and green area management.

Understand the data methodology

The Data Methodology explains how WhatsMy.Zone calculates hardiness zones, frost dates, frost-safe growing periods, and special frost regimes using recent global climate data.

Build with the API

The WhatsMy.Zone API gives developers access to global hardiness zone and frost data for apps, websites, garden planners, ecommerce systems, nursery tools, and climate-aware plant databases.

Ready-to-use solutions built on our service

Add climate widgets to your website

The Widgets let website owners embed location-aware USDA zone and frost information without building their own climate data system. They are useful for garden blogs, plant shops, nursery websites, and plant care pages that want to give visitors local growing guidance.

Protect sensitive products with Freeze Alert

Freeze Alert is a WordPress and WooCommerce plugin for stores selling plants, cuttings, seeds, bulbs, cosmetics, liquids, biological products, or other goods that should not be exposed to freezing temperatures.

Create your local Growers Calendar

The Growers Calendar creates a planting and care calendar based on location, time of year, selected plants, and growing conditions such as outdoor garden, greenhouse, or indoor growing.
