How Farmington Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 23389 in Harborton, Virginia (VA) sits in zone 8a, with winter lows 10 to 15 F. That milder winter means Japanese maples like Red Dragon Laceleaf grow with less risk of cold damage.

ZIP 37756 in Huntsville, Tennessee (TN) is zone 7a, lows 0 to 5 F. That warmer zone supports a longer growing season for fruit trees. Bing Cherry is hardy in both zones, but in Huntsville less frost risk. That gap changes the local shortlist to include more tender fruits. For your cart, that means Farmington buyers need to choose frost-hardy varieties like Bing Cherry and plan for late frost protection.

ZIP 76469 in Putnam, Texas (TX) also sits in zone 8a with lows 10-15 F. Palms and tropicals grow there, but not in Farmington's zone 5a. For your cart, that means your tree options focus on cold-hardy species like the ones listed here.
