Nevada Planting Calendar

Nevada spans USDA zones 5b, 7a, 7b, 9a, 9b. Last spring frost runs from January 24 to May 29 depending on where you are, which is weeks of difference — so pick the location nearest you rather than planting to a statewide date.

Bottom line: a statewide planting date is a compromise nobody's garden actually lives at. Nevada's last-frost spread is 125 days wide. Use the location nearest you.
