Terms of Service

Last updated: May 2026

Informational use only

Content on ZonePlant is provided for general informational purposes. Gardening, orchard management, and grafting decisions involve site-specific factors (soil, microclimate, pest pressure, water availability) that no general reference can fully account for. Use the recommendations on this site as a starting point for your own research, not as a substitute for local extension service advice or your own observation.

No medical or horticultural advice

Information about pesticides, herbal uses, edible plants, foraging, and similar topics is not medical or professional advice. Identification of plants from photographs is not reliable. Consult appropriate professionals before applying chemicals, ingesting foraged plants, or making decisions that could affect health or safety.

Accuracy and updates

We work to keep content accurate and up to date, but make no warranties about completeness or correctness. Climate data, frost dates, and zone designations change over time and the site may not reflect the most recent USDA or NOAA updates. If you find an error, please contact us.

Images sourced from third parties retain their original licenses (Creative Commons, public domain, etc.) as noted in their captions.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ZonePlant and its maintainers are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use of this site or its information.
