Plants in California
Plant evidence This view is scoped by documented place and hardiness data, not by construction-code adoption.
Same list shape as the national grow page, scoped to records documented in California and USDA half-zones 10a, 10b, 11a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, 9a, 9b. Genus cards carry a split, never a verdict.
