What zone 13a actually tells you
The 2023 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts a place in zone 13a when the coldest night of the year averaged 60 to 65°F (15.6 to 18.3°C) over 1991–2020. The zone says which perennials survive the winter, not when to plant in spring.
Frost dates answer the planting question, and they are read from the nearest NOAA station, not from the zone. The zone 13a ZIP codes here lie in 2 states; pick your own ZIP code below, or look up the zone of any ZIP code.
