How Prescott Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 42364 in Hawesville, Kentucky (KY, zone 7a) has typical winter lows of 0 to 5 degrees F. The milder winters there allow Japanese maples to grow with less risk of dieback. Locally, that points buyers toward Japanese maples like Orangeola and Sangokaku, but in Prescott's zone 5a they need sheltered spots away from wind and hot sun.

ZIP 21050 in Forest Hill, Maryland (MD, zone 7b) rarely sees winter lows below 5 degrees F. The practical difference is that cold-hardy trees like American Sycamore are easy everywhere, but in Prescott you must avoid marginally hardy species that cannot handle -20 to -15 degrees.

ZIP 39175 in Utica, Mississippi (MS, zone 8b) has winter lows of 15 to 20 degrees F and much hotter summers that demand drought tolerance. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward drought-hardy trees, while in Prescott cold hardiness is the first priority. For Prescott buyers, choosing trees rated for zone 5 or colder and placing them to avoid harsh afternoon sun gives the best chance of success.
