What trees grow fastest in Colorado Springs?

Fastest growers include Eastern Redcedar and Chinese Pistachio. Both add height quickly and handle zone 6 well. Eastern Redcedar is especially fast for privacy screens.

How Colorado Springs Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 55613 in Schroeder, Minnesota (MN) sits in zone 4b, with winter lows between -25 and -20 F. That makes Japanese maples a risky choice there. In zone 6a of Colorado Springs, Japanese maples have a better chance but still need winter protection.

In practice, buyers here lean toward trees that laugh off cold winters, like Eastern Redcedar and Chinese Pistachio. These species handle zone 6a without extra fuss.

ZIP 39115 in Midnight, Mississippi (MS) is zone 8b, with winter lows 15 to 20 F. Palms and tropical plants thrive there year-round. In Colorado Springs zone 6a, those same plants would need indoor winter storage.

For your cart, that means focusing on cold-hardy ornamentals. Tuscarora Crape Myrtle and Forest Pansy Eastern Redbud give tropical-looking blooms without the freeze risk.

ZIP 59645 in White Sulphur Springs, Montana (MT) also hits zone 4b, with winter lows -25 to -20 F. Citrus trees cannot survive there. In zone 6a, cold-hardy fruits like Chicago Hardy Fig are possible with protection.

That gap changes the local shortlist to fruit trees that handle zone 6. The Chicago Hardy Fig is a favorite for its sweet figs and winter hardiness.

For Colorado Springs, the differences mean you can enjoy a wider range of trees than colder ZIPs, but you still need species that handle -10 to -5 F lows.

Buying trees in Colorado Springs 80907: 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

Colorado Springs 80907 sits in USDA zone 6a. Your zone describes the coldest winter a tree can reliably survive. In a mid-country climate you get the widest catalog: most shade, flowering and evergreen trees qualify, and the filter mostly guards the borderline picks.

Typical winter lows here run about -10 to -5 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.
