there's these bands of 'zones' across the USA, and as the weather gets warmer, the zones drift north. Trees and plants are assigned to a zone, and if you stick to your zone, you should be less disappointed by them dying or underperforming.

You can google a picture up, just search for "USDA Zone Map" and voila, you'll pretty much get 90% of it in 10 seconds or less.
