In practice, buyers here lean toward fruit trees that require fewer chill hours. Your Fairland winters are colder, so your fruit picks need more chill hours. Bing Cherry fits your zone.

ZIP 36046 in Lapine, Alabama (AL) is zone 8b with lows of 15 to 20 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to include palms and tropical-looking plants that you cannot grow outdoors in Shelby County.
