How Gakona Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 02808 in Bradford, Rhode Island (RI) sits in zone 7a with winter lows of 0 to 5 F. That zone allows many more tree species, including Southern magnolia and dogwood. Locally, that points buyers toward evergreens and cold-tolerant oaks. In Gakona, the selection narrows to trees that endure -40 F.

ZIP 29664 in Mountain Rest, South Carolina (SC) is zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 F. Summers are hot and humid, which limits some northern species. The practical difference is that Gakona's dry cold suits junipers and red cedars better than wet-heat-tolerant trees. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward dense evergreens that block wind.

ZIP 57751 in Keystone, South Dakota (SD) is zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15 F. That zone is still cold but milder than Gakona's. Keystone can grow many maples and oaks without extra risk. Locally, that points buyers toward the hardiest of the featured trees, like Bur Oak and Skyrocket Juniper.

For Gakona buyers, these contrasts mean sticking with the zone-2-matched trees on this page. They are the ones that will survive your coldest winters.
