I'm in Albuquerque which I'm told is zone 7, and looking in a few
books they too show zone 7 (large US maps). However I snagged a
copy of Sunsets "Western Garden Book" from the local library
Saturday and it shows me in zone 10 (state map and of course more
detailed than a US map). Could this be an error? 3 zones is an
awfully big discrepancy. It doesn't show a 7 in the entire state!

Before you ask, No, I've not contacted a nursery - YET - since
reading this as I just ran across it an hour ago.
