Typical winter lows in ZIP 35648 run about 5 to 10 degrees F. That puts you in zone 7b, which is warm enough for most trees that dislike deep cold. A few nights may dip lower, but brief cold snaps rarely harm established trees.

How Lexington Compares to Other Areas

Tree selection shifts when you compare Lexington to colder or drier regions. ZIP 05669 in Roxbury, Vermont (VT) sits in zone 5a with winter lows of -20 to -15 F. That extreme cold rules out many traditional southern trees. Locally, that points buyers toward Japanese maples, which are hardy in zone 5 but can struggle in warmer, humid climates. In Lexington, Japanese maples need careful siting with afternoon shade to avoid leaf scorch. Cold-hardiness isn't the issue here; heat and humidity are.

ZIP 57750 in Interior, South Dakota (SD) is also zone 5a with similar cold lows. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-tolerant evergreens and hardy fruit trees like apple. In Lexington, the warmer conditions let you choose from many more fruit trees, including peaches and plums. Cold-hardiness is rarely a limiting factor in your yard.

ZIP 54214 in Francis Creek, Wisconsin (WI) is zone 5b with winter lows of -15 to -10 F. The practical difference is that Francis Creek sees longer cold winters and shorter growing seasons. Lexington's longer, hotter summers challenge trees differently: heat stress and humidity matter more than winter survival. Disease resistance and drought tolerance become key for your choices.

The bottom line for Lexington buyers: focus on heat tolerance and summer performance rather than winter hardiness. The trees on this page are selected with that in mind.
