How Memphis Compares to Other Areas

Tree choices shift when you look at different climates. Here is how Memphis stacks up against three other zones.

In ZIP 57466 in Onaka, South Dakota (SD), winters hit zone 4b with lows down to -25 to -20 F. That extreme cold rules out many broadleaf evergreens and most fruit trees. Japanese maples, for instance, struggle there because their leaves dry out in bitter winter wind. Locally, that points buyers toward cold-hardy conifers like spruce and pine. The practical effect on Memphis shoppers: we can plant Japanese maple varieties that would fail in Onaka, such as the Emperor 1 or Crimson Queen. Our zone 7a is warm enough for their delicate foliage.

ZIP 54469 in Port Edwards, Wisconsin (WI) also sits in zone 4b with winter lows -25 to -20 F. Cold-hardiness drives the selection there. Species that survive that zone must tolerate severe freezes. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward trees like crabapple or serviceberry that can take deep cold. In contrast, Memphis stays above 0 F in most winters, so we can grow evergreens like Magnolia grandiflora and broadleaf hollies. The practical difference is that your yard can support a much wider palette of trees, including many that would not survive a Wisconsin winter.

ZIP 83119 in Fairview, Wyoming (WY) is zone 5a with lows -20 to -15 F. Heat and humidity are rarely a problem there. Summer days are dry and mild. The practical difference is that Fairview trees seldom need to handle the humid, muggy conditions that define Memphis summers. A tree like the Chinese Elm, which resists leaf disease in humidity, would be less needed out west. Here, your zone 7a heat and humidity make it wise to choose trees that tolerate both. That is why the Dwarf Palmetto Palm and Southern Magnolia do well here but would struggle in Fairview's dry cold.

What this means for your Memphis cart: you have more choices than these colder areas. Focus on trees built for warm, humid summers and mild winter frosts.
