Default Re: Where is similar to my zone?

I recorded the lows in my yard this winter.


winter 07/08 temps 32F and below - Dec. 25F 31F 25F 32F 29F Jan. 29F 23F 25F 32F 32F 25F 31F Feb. 32F 32F

I am still collecting bananas and have not brought any to fruit yet. I would think that climate conditions during the growing season would be just as important as the winter lows in regards to getting fruit. For instance we have hot and humid weather with rainfall year round. Our growing season is from mid Febuary through mid December.
