USDA zone
USDA Zone 5 plants

This list is plants listed for USDA Zone 5 winter minimum. It is a catalog tag, not a ZIP lookup and not a map of your garden.
Find your zone on the USDA hardiness guide if you need the lookup. Then browse this list and open a profile — a Zone 5 shrub and a Zone 5 annual are not the same plant.
What this list is
- Zone here is the catalog winter-minimum number, not a how-to for finding your zone.
- Open a profile for sun, size, and water.
- The USDA guide owns ZIP lookup; this page only lists members.
