Reading various post on this NG it seems to me that Zones relate in some way
to temperature. Here in the UK it is either hot or cold. :-) So could some
kind person let me have a list of these Zones and related temperatures, if I
am correct in my assumption..

I dont have the zone chart URL but basicly
the zone # is the coldest it usually gets,
the higher numbers are warmer.

the UK is probably somewhere around zones
7 or 8 since you dont get the really nasty
freezing weather.

Im in Rhode Island (think Newport, zone 6,
-10 F is coldest winter temps.
zone 5 (New Hampshire/Vermont/Maine) would
be -20 F

The zones represent the lowest average temp that an area receives. The
USDA produces the map most people reference. The USDA's page explaining
the map and zones is he http://www.usna.usda.gov/Hardzone/index.html

Most of the UK is Zone 8. The western coast is Zone 9, and a small
section in the Northeast is zone 7.
This URL will give you the zones of Europe and Eastern Russia,

Many thanks for all the help, new the websites existed but could not find
them

Mouse,

Our USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) has published several
maps of the US that define "zones" for argicultural reasons. Typically when
we talk about zones here, we are talking about the plant hardiness zones,
but there are first frost zone maps, last frost maps, etc.

We have a listing of some sites with great information on zones on our web
site at:

The USDA (US Department of Agriculture) has defined a system of Zones, for
describing the average lowest winter temperature.

You can see the list of the zones, and a map of where the different zones in
the US are at this website

They are based on the average cold temperature, not extremes.
