Zone 10a and Zone 10b Plants
Many of the perennial plants in our catalog are well-suited for Zones 10a or 10b. Several of our favorite species of abutilon, agave, aspidistra, brugmansia, buddleia, canna, colocasia, crinum, dryopteris, edgeworthia, farfugium, hedychium, kniphofia, lantana, liriope, mangave, muhlenbergia, musa, pyrrosia, rhodophiala, rohdea, sabal, salvia, trachycarpus, verbena, yucca, zantedeschia, zephyranthes, and more thrive in Zones 10a or 10b. Be sure to read how we assign hardiness zones to our plants.
The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map is based on the average annual minimum winter temperature, divided into 10-degree F zones. Each zone is then subdivided into 5-degree F sub-zones. Zone numbers increase as you move from north to south.
Zone 10a annual minimum winter temperatures should be 30 to 35 °F (-1.1 to 1.7 °C). Zone 10b annual minimum temperatures should be 35 to 40 °F (1.7 to 4.4 °C). Keep in mind that the zone designation does not tell you how many days the area may reach those average minimums. There can also be a major difference between what plants will grow in the 'a' or 'b' sub-zones.
