Frequently Asked Questions
How cold does it get in Three Rivers in winter?
Winter lows in Three Rivers typically run from about 25 to 30 degrees F. That puts you in zone 9b, one of the warmest zones in the continental U.S. Freezes are brief and rarely deep enough to damage hardy trees.
When do trees ship to Three Rivers?
Your zone 9 order ships in a fall or early-spring window, ahead of summer heat. That timing gives roots a cool, moist period to settle in before the hot dry season arrives. Specific dates depend on nursery stock and your order.
What is the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee?
It means we replace any tree free of charge if it dies from any cause within a full year of delivery. The guarantee covers the replacement tree and its shipping. It gives you a full year to get the tree established without financial risk.

How Three Rivers Compares to Other Areas
ZIP 93271 in Three Rivers (zone 9b, winter lows 25 to 30 F) sits in a warm pocket. Compare that to colder zones where tree choices shrink fast.
ZIP 16228 in Ford Cliff, Pennsylvania (PA) lands in zone 6b with winter lows -5 to 0 F. Japanese maples that handle Three Rivers easily freeze back there. The practical difference is that ZIP 93271 can grow borderline-hardy species like the Mediterranean Fan Palm outdoors all year. Ford Cliff needs a garage or risk losing them to winter kill. Three Rivers buyers can pick from a far wider palette of flowering and tropical trees.
ZIP 84757 in New Harmony, Utah (UT) sits in zone 7a, winter lows 0 to 5 F. That zone forces a choice toward drought-tolerant evergreens and away from moisture-loving trees. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward species like Texas Mountain Laurel that handle both dry summers and mild frost. New Harmony's colder lows rule out the fig and many palms that thrive in your ZIP.
ZIP 38181 in Memphis, Tennessee (TN) is zone 8a, winter lows 10 to 15 F. Memphis gets humid summer heat that stresses some trees; Three Rivers's drier heat suits many palms and desert-adapted species. Locally, that points buyers toward trees like the Chinese Elm that handle both moisture and aridity. The warmer lows in Three Rivers let you grow the Chicago Hardy Fig outdoors with confidence, while Memphis's colder winters would kill it.
Bottom line: Your zone 9b ZIP offers a longer growing season and milder winter than almost any inland comparison. That means more species succeed, especially palms, figs, and desert bloomers.
