USDA Zone 11A

Zone 11A Planting Calendar — Year-Round Growing

Zone 11a is frost-free, with winter minimums well above freezing. The calendar is governed by wet and dry seasons rather than cold: the November-to-April dry season is the productive window, and the hot, humid summer carries the highest disease and insect pressure of any zone.

Zone 11A at a glance: This zone has no freeze on record, so there is no last-frost date to plan around and the growing year never closes. Timing is driven by heat and the wet season instead: the productive window runs roughly October 15 to February 28, and midsummer is the off-season.
