In practice, trees for zone 6 in Norwich include many of the hardiest ornamentals, shade trees, and evergreens. The deciduous types go fully dormant and shrug off New England winters. Evergreens like junipers and redcedars tolerate drying winds when planted in sheltered spots.

New London County's mix of coastal influence and inland cold means you can grow a broad palette. Japanese maples thrive with some afternoon shade. Figs need a protected spot but reward with fruit.
