Welcome to ATP Elaine, from another Elaine.
This is such a great site with answers to just about any question or problem you might have.
You can find your zone by just doing a search under USDA Hardiness Zones. A map will come up and you just click on the approx. location of your new town.
Our Fearless Leaders, Dave and Trish Whitinger (owners and founders of the site) live in Jacksonville TX somewhat northeast of Taylor and there is a whole forum on Texas Gardening available to you where you will find lots of knowledgeable people near you for info on what to plant when, good nurseries etc. When you get situated you will have many more specific questions about your new garden, I'm sure.
Here's a link
