Frequently Asked Questions

How cold does it get in Davis Junction in winter?

Davis Junction falls in zone 5b with typical winter lows of -15 to -10 degrees Fahrenheit. That means many ornamental and fruit trees with warmer zone ratings will not survive without protection.

What trees grow fastest in Davis Junction?

American Sycamore is one of the fastest growers for zone 5. It adds two feet of height per year in full sun and reaches a large shade canopy quickly. Other fast options include certain junipers for privacy screens.

Can I grow fruit or citrus trees in Davis Junction?

You can grow cold-hardy fruit trees like Chicago Hardy Fig, but citrus requires warmer zones. Apples and cherries need a second compatible variety near your tree for pollination. Barely hardy figs need winter mulch or wrapping.
