Australian Gardening Zones Map

This image was produced by Mr Murray Fagg of the Australian National Botanic Gardens and in the past I had usually linked directly to it on Murray's advice. It appears the link has since disappeared so now I am hosting it myself. I'll keep it here as a sticky for people to check whenever they need to.

Thanks Simon. I couldn't work out why some nurserys were saying Zone 4 or less for tea roses when other say zone 9-10.

Thanks Simon. This explains a lot. When I Google certain rose varieties I invariably end up on some US based site and I could never work out what zone applied to me.

Ok Simon and others, just out of interest, just a little fib here. As some on the forum know I live at Mudgee NSW. We are clasified as Central Tablelands. i think we are border line between that and Central West Slopes. Any thoughts. If I could overlay a map with Mudgee on it, I think we are would be on the line. I ight be a zone 8 leading to a 9. what do we think, David.

Almost

Interesting. We are in zone 4 and I just noticed that we are in the same zone as Perth and Adelaide. Same as Mt Isa actually and Katerine and probably Marble Bar (the hotest place in Oz)

I'm in the same zone as Sydney! Blue Mt probably
