"Cold hardy" refers to a plant's ability to withstand low temperatures and survive in cold climates. These plants can endure frost and freezing conditions, making them suitable for regions with harsh winters. Cold hardiness is often measured by a plant's USDA hardiness zone, which indicates the minimum temperatures it can tolerate. This characteristic is essential for gardeners and landscapers selecting plants that will thrive in specific climates.
