Zone question

[amyquilt]

How do you figure out exactly what zone you are in. I've seen many of the color coded maps, but seems sometimes they are different.

I'm just curious, since we will be moving in a few months to a more desirable part of Texas and I have big plans for gardening.

TIA!

That's very helpful!
Unfortunately I'm on the edge of zone 5a and 6!
