Zone 10 Plants & Flowers

About

Plant Zone 10 is a beautiful place to live. In these areas, the winters aren’t too chilly and hardly ever dip into icky freezing temps. The summers are warm, sunny, and gorgeous. Miami, Los Angeles, Tampa, San Jose, San Francisco, San Diego, and Phoenix are just a few cities that have this sun kissed Zone 10 weather. Plant Zone 10 is split into two subzones, Zone 10a and 10b. Zone 10a has a minimum average winter temperature of 30 degrees F to 35 degrees F. Zone 10b is a bit warmer, and has a minimum average winter temperature of 35 degrees F to 40 degrees F. Because of these temperatures, you often see more tropical plants thriving here! Because most winters don’t have freezes, many more plants can survive here that don’t cope well with the cold. On the other hand, you have to be careful of the blazing temperatures that can sometimes burn or kill your plants.
