To find the zone you are in, refer to map, pages 32-33, center of this book, which 
we use by courtesy of Mr. Donald Wyman, as shown in his publication, Shrubs and Vines 
for American Gardens, published by the Macmillan Company, New York, 1949. Please 
understand that these temperature ratings show our opinions to the best of our ability, 
but we disclaim all responsibility for their correctness.
