How Curtis Compares to Other Areas
Understanding how Curtis's climate differs from other regions helps you make smart choices. Here is how zone 5a compares with three other locations across the country.
In ZIP 98946 in Thorp, Washington (WA), the climate is zone 7a with winter lows of 0 to 5 F. Thorp winters are milder, so privacy and screening options there include a wider range of evergreens like Thuja Green Giant. That gap changes the local shortlist to prioritize cold-hardy junipers like Skyrocket here in Curtis.
For your cart, that means evergreen choices in Curtis lean toward species that handle -20 F, while Thorp buyers have more flexibility. Skyrocket Juniper remains a superb choice for your tight screens.
In ZIP 38083 in Millington, Tennessee (TN), zone 8a brings winter lows of 10 to 15 F. Millington's longer growing season supports flowering trees like Eastern Redbud and White Dogwood that bloom earlier and more vigorously. For your cart, that means flowering color in Curtis focuses on later-blooming, cold-hardy species such as Mexican Plum, which tolerates your colder springs.
In practice, buyers here lean toward plums and apple varieties rather than the more tender dogwoods that thrive in Tennessee. Your spring color might arrive a bit later, but it will be reliable.
In ZIP 77351 in Livingston, Texas (TX), zone 9a has winter lows of 20 to 25 F. That mild climate allows year-round citrus growing and even subtropical plants. In practice, buyers here lean toward citrus and palms, while Curtis fruit tree buyers must focus on temperate species like Elberta Peach that require chill hours. The contrast shows how zone 5a dictates a fruit list heavy on apples, peaches, and plums, not tropicals.
What this means for your cart: Curtis winters are the deciding factor. Every tree in our collection has been chosen to survive your zone, so you can order with confidence.
Freight delivery and the Thrive Guarantee
Arbor Buddy ships large nursery-grown trees by freight direct to your address in ZIP 49820. A freight truck can reach rural Curtis roads, but you will need a driveway or street wide enough for the truck to stop and unload. Plan for someone to be home to inspect the tree before the driver leaves.
Every tree is zone-matched before shipping. Zone 5 orders queue for the spring window rather than midwinter, so your tree ships when Curtis soil is ready for planting. All trees are backed by our 1-Year Thrive Guarantee: if the tree does not survive its first year, we replace it free of charge.
Before delivery day, check:
- Someone will be home to receive the tree and look it over.
- A freight truck can reach your street with room to stop or turn around.
- You have a clear spot near the driveway where the tree can be dropped.
- Watch for long narrow driveways, soft ground, or low branches and wires that might block the truck.
