The plant hardiness zone map below, maps zones of minimum temperatures. These give an indication of whether a plant is likely to be able to survive in a certain location based on its minimum survival temperature. This map gives no indication of maximum temperature, humidity, light and soil moisture content, all important factors on a plant’s survival.

Que zona es en San Miguel El Salvador
Elizabeth, I would suggest San Miguel is on the border between zone 11 and zone 12. If you are in the city itself it is more likely to be zone 12.
