American frost zones

Does anyone have the translation of the usda hardiness frost zone keys which accompany american text on plants. I would be grateful if anyone could fill me in on the key. Do you mean the USDA hardiness zone system? Here you will find some info: http://markw.com/hzones.htm http://www2.dicom.se/fuchsias/eurozoner.html But - This zone system just gives the average yearly recorded minimum temperatures. It should be noted that for the winter survival of a certain plant, in any given location, many other factors also play a role (local humidity, local temperature fluctuations, amount of wind and sunshine, latitude, microclimate etc.) A continental climate (the US) is not the same as a maritime climate (the UK).
