How San Francisco Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 02651 in North Eastham, Massachusetts (MA) sits in zone 7b with winter lows of 5 to 10 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to Japanese maples, which struggle in your zone 10b because they need winter chill. For your cart, that means you leave out cold-loving species and focus on tropicals and subtropicals that thrive in your mild lows.

ZIP 04105 in Falmouth, Maine (ME) is zone 6a with lows from -10 to -5 F, a far cry from your 35 to 40 F. Privacy and screening options there are limited to cold-hardy evergreens like spruce and arborvitae. For your cart, that means you have a wider range: you can plant crape myrtles, olives, and even palms that wouldn't survive a Maine winter.

ZIP 20896 in Garrett Park, Maryland (MD) is zone 7b with winter lows of 5 to 10 F. Flowering color options there center on dogwoods and cherry trees that need winter dormancy. In practice, buyers here lean toward crape myrtles and citrus, which bloom longer in your mild climate. The differences mean your tree list for 94122 leans heavily toward warmth-loving varieties that wouldn't make sense in colder zones.

Buying trees in San Francisco 94122: what locals should know

Ordering a large tree online is not like ordering a lamp. Here is what is worth knowing before you buy, from reading your hardiness zone to what actually shows up on the truck.

How to read your hardiness zone

San Francisco 94122 sits in USDA zone 10b. Your zone describes the coldest winter a tree can reliably survive. In a near-tropical zone almost nothing is too tender, so the filter works in reverse: it flags trees that need winter chill they will never get here.

Typical winter lows here run about 35 to 40 F. Half-zones matter at the edges: two steps on the map are about five winter degrees, which is enough to decide whether a borderline pick belongs in your cart.

What freight delivery actually means

Your tree arrives large, nursery-grown and at a usable landscape size, secured to a pallet and delivered curbside or as close as the truck can safely get. Before delivery day, run through this quick checklist:

  • Someone can be home to receive the tree and look it over on arrival.
  • A freight truck can reach your street, with room to stop or turn around.
  • You know where you want it dropped: curbside, or as close as the driver can safely get.
  • Access watch-outs are handled: narrow driveways, soft ground after rain, low branches or wires.

The guarantee, in plain terms

If a tree does not survive its first year, we replace it free, shipping included. The promise works because every tree ships zone-matched and nursery-grown, so it arrives set up to succeed in your climate rather than gambling against it.

Coverage runs a full year from delivery. If something goes wrong, contact the team and they arrange the replacement. No store-credit games, no fine-print maze.
