When can you plant in Hidden Hills, CA?

Zone 10a

Zone 10a (30 to 35°F average annual minimum) comes from the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map; the frost dates above are the 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting NOAA station for Hidden Hills, not a forecast for this year.

How much risk comes with planting early here

01/24 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 03/05 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 12/21 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
