Really Important — Bamboo Climate Zone Information
To find the best bamboo for your climate, it is important to know in which outdoor climate zone you will plant your bamboo. We use the USDA Hardiness Zones to determine this. Please enter your Zip Code in the green box below to get your zone. Microclimates within zip codes may cause Zones to vary slightly.
