One of the best tools that you have as gardeners to help us estimate your gardening schedule is the USDA zone info. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

In Miami you can estimate when it's possible to plant nolana by checking out the USDA zone info.
