Summers here bring humidity and occasional dry spells. Trees that tolerate both wet and dry periods do best. Shade trees, evergreens, and many flowering ornamentals are right at home. Japanese maples need a sheltered spot away from hot afternoon sun to avoid leaf scorch. The trees for zone 6 in Mapleton include everything from stately oaks to colorful crape myrtles.
