How Altamont Compares to Other Areas

Tree choices shift with climate. Here's how Altamont's zone 6b compares with three other ZIPs.

ZIP 29218 in Columbia, South Carolina (SC) sits in zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F. Japanese maples that need protection from afternoon heat do well there, but they also face humidity. Locally, that points buyers toward Seiryu Japanese Laceleaf Maple, which benefits from some shade in Altamont's cooler summers.

ZIP 57046 in Mission Hill, South Dakota (SD) is in zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15 F. Hardiness is the main concern there, while Altamont's milder winters allow a wider range of trees. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-hardy species like Brodie Eastern Red Cedar, which handles both locations well.

ZIP 98019 in Duvall, Washington (WA) is zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F and high rainfall. Heat and humidity are less of an issue there, while Altamont's warm summers and periodic dry spells favor trees that tolerate heat. The practical difference is your selections need to handle both cold and occasional heat stress, unlike Duvall's more moderated climate.

For Altamont buyers, these contrasts mean you should focus on trees that endure both zone 6 cold and summer heat, which our featured picks already do.
