USDA Hardiness Planting Zones
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
Our bulb collections will easily give you beautiful, harmonious results in garden beds and floral arrangements. We plan, you plant: each collection is curated by our gardening experts, featuring flower groupings with complementary colors, heights, and bloom times.
Our Shade Porch Red Bulb Collection includes 6 bulbs, covering 3 square feet when planted together, including the following items:
*Not all plants will be in bloom at the same time, as depicted on the illustration. Plants are subject to change due to availability. If we make substitutions, we feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the garden/collection design.
