thank you for the link. This site says I'm 8b, and another says i'm 10b. 10b sounds more like my weather. Anyone else getting such a variance?

The site that the above link is to puts me in 5a, which is correct. For absolutes on your USDA Hardiness zone, go to the USDA website to check their historical weather data.

usda puts me in 10a, which is correct it looks like. I mistyped above, not 10b, I'm in 10a. I like the USDA site, lots of good info Smile

Camp's link put me in the correct zone, but when I looked at the  planting dates for my zone, it was way off.

There's a note at the bottom of the planting date page that says it's for middle Georgia.  Shocked (Same zone; totally different dates.)
