Trees for Zone 6 in Jonesboro
Trees for zone 6 in Jonesboro must handle winter lows around -10 to -5 degrees F. That cold rules out palms and many tender ornamentals. But shade trees, evergreens, and cold-hardy flowering trees like Texas Redbud thrive. Summers bring heat and humidity, so choose trees that tolerate both. In places near Van Buren, Gas City, Swayzee, or Fowlerton, soil varies but most trees on Arbor Buddy's list are bred for zone 6a.
Zone 6a is a versatile climate. You can grow maples, oaks, junipers, and many fruit trees. The key is picking varieties proven to withstand your coldest snaps. Arbor Buddy matches every tree to your hardiness zone before shipping.

Jonesboro experiences cold winters typical of zone 6a. Average lows can drop well below zero, so choose trees rated for that zone.

How Jonesboro Compares to Other Areas
Your tree choices shift depending on where you live. Compare Jonesboro to three other ZIPs to see the difference.
ZIP 77855 in Flynn, Texas (TX) is zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F. That warmth allows palms and tropicals year-round. In practice, buyers here lean toward palms and tropical trees. For Jonesboro, you cannot grow those. Instead, choose cold-hardy evergreens and shade trees that take both heat and freezing.
ZIP 98303 in Anderson Island, Washington (WA) is also zone 8b with mild lows. Fruit and citrus thrive there. For your cart, that means you must skip citrus. Focus on cold-hardy fruits like Chicago Hardy Fig and Honeycrisp Apple that handle zone 6a winters.
ZIP 57384 in Wolsey, South Dakota (SD) is zone 4b with lows of -25 to -20 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to only the toughest trees. Jonesboro has more flowering options than Wolsey does. You can grow Texas Redbud and Japanese maples, while Wolsey gardeners cannot. The lesson for Jonesboro: your zone lets you enjoy a broader palette than many northern areas, but you still need cold-hardy varieties that also tolerate summer heat.
