Frequently Asked Questions

How cold does it get in Brooks in winter?

Brooks is in zone 7a, where winter lows typically hit 0 to 5 degrees F. That cold is mild enough for most shade, flowering, and fruit trees, but tender subtropicals need extra protection.

When do trees ship to Brooks?

Trees arrive in spring or fall, the two planting-friendly stretches for zone 7. The exact timing depends on your order and local weather, but Arbor Buddy coordinates to avoid extreme heat or freeze.

What size do the trees arrive at?

Your tree ships as a large nursery-grown plant at a usable landscape size. It is ready to go in the ground, not a tiny seedling. The exact size varies by species, but you get a head start on growth.

How Brooks Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 52037 in Delmar, Iowa (IA) sits in zone 5a with typical winter lows of -20 to -15 F. That cold eliminates many Japanese maples that Brooks grows easily. The practical difference is that Delmar buyers must choose only the hardiest laceleaf varieties, while Brooks can enjoy Tamukeyama and similar without worry.

ZIP 04773 in Saint David, Maine (ME) falls in zone 4b with lows of -25 to -20 F. Heat and humidity are rarely a problem there, but drought tolerance matters less. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-hardy conifers and oaks. Brooks growers face more summer stress and can select trees that shrug off humidity, like the Royal White Eastern Redbud.

ZIP 56174 in Storden, Minnesota (MN) is zone 5a with similar -20 to -15 F lows. Hot summers are short, so heat tolerance is not a factor. Locally, that points buyers toward fast-growing shade trees that can handle temperature swings. In Brooks, the longer growing season and warm nights let you consider figs and Japanese maples that would not survive a Minnesota winter.

What it means for your cart: Brooks' mild zone 7a climate expands your options beyond what most cold-zone growers can plant. You get a bigger palette of flowering, fruit, and ornamental trees.
