Choosing trees by goal

Shade and canopy. Shumard Oak, shade trees. Give it room to spread; roots can be wide. Plant away from the house.

Privacy and screening. American Pillar Arborvitae, evergreens. Space at 3 to 4 feet for a dense wall. Full sun gives the tightest growth.

Flowering and curb appeal. Tuscarora Crape Myrtle, Rising Sun Redbud. Crape myrtle needs full sun and good drainage. Prune in early spring.

Grow your own fruit. Elberta Peach, fruit trees. Most fruit trees need a second variety nearby for pollination. Check compatibility.

Small spaces and accents. Seiryu Japanese Laceleaf Maple. Laceleaf maples scorch in afternoon sun; give partial shade. Mulch to keep roots cool.

Trees for Zone 6 in Edina

Edina sits in USDA hardiness zone 6a, where winter lows typically hit -10 to -5 degrees Fahrenheit. That cold eliminates many marginally hardy trees, but the featured picks are all rated for zone 6 or colder. The Shumard Oak is hardy to zone 5, American Pillar Arborvitae to zone 3, and the Elberta Peach and Tuscarora Crape Myrtle to zone 5 and 6 respectively. Even the Seiryu maple, at zone 5b, is well within Edina’s temperature range.

Summers here are warm and humid, which suits the crape myrtle and redbud. Japanese maples appreciate some afternoon shade to avoid leaf scorch, especially on the south side of homes. Evergreens like arborvitae thrive in full sun and handle the humidity fine.

For trees for zone 6 in Edina, you can trust that every tree we ship has been vetted against your local hardiness zone. That means less guessing and more growing.

How Edina Compares to Other Areas

Zone 6a gives Edina a different tree shortlist than places with milder winters or longer growing seasons.

ZIP 98383 in Silverdale, Washington (WA) sits in zone 8b, with winter lows of 15 to 20 degrees F. That warmer climate lets Silverdale plant Japanese maples that are only borderline in zone 6. The Seiryu Maple is hardy to zone 5b, so it works here, but the open-laceleaf varieties like Red Dragon need protection from dry heat and afternoon sun. That gap changes the local shortlist to: stick with the hardiest Japanese maple species and give them shade. In Edina, your selection is narrower but more reliable.

ZIP 57741 in Fort Meade, South Dakota (SD) is zone 4b, with lows of -25 to -20 degrees F. That extreme cold rules out most flowering trees and crape myrtles. Privacy options there lean toward ultra-hardy evergreens like juniper and spruce. For your cart, that means: the American Pillar Arborvitae (zone 3 to 8) fits both 4b and 6a, but Edina can also grow the Tuscarora Crape Myrtle, which Fort Meade cannot. Your privacy choices here are broader and include flowering screens.

ZIP 29404 in Charleston AFB, South Carolina (SC) is zone 9a, with lows of 20 to 25 degrees F. There, crape myrtles bloom for months and Japanese maples grow with ease. In practice, buyers here lean toward: fruit trees that need low chill hours. The Elberta Peach requires about 800 chill hours, which Charleston seldom gets. Edina’s colder winters give you far better fruit production, you can grow Elberta Peaches while buyers in Charleston cannot.

What does it all mean for your cart? Edina’s zone 6a offers a sweet spot: cold enough for dependable fruit and hardiness, but not so cold that you give up summer blooms and laceleaf maples.

Freight delivery and the Thrive Guarantee

Your trees arrive by freight truck directly to your Edina address. They are nursery-grown at a usable landscape size, typically 5 to 6 feet tall, and shipped in sturdy boxes. Every order is zone-matched to 6a before it leaves the nursery. And because we stand behind our trees, each one carries a 1-Year Thrive Guarantee: if it doesn’t survive its first year, we replace it free.

Orders to zone 6 areas are scheduled for spring and fall arrival windows. That timing gives roots a chance to establish before the temperature extremes of summer or winter.

Before delivery day, check:

  • Someone must be home to receive and inspect the tree.
  • The truck needs a clear route to your driveway, room to stop and turn around.
  • Decide where you want the tree placed; the driver can drop it in the driveway or a nearby accessible spot.
  • Watch for low-hanging branches, wires, or long narrow driveways that may limit truck access.

Buying trees in Edina 63537: what locals should know

Ordering a large tree online is not like ordering a lamp. Here is what is worth knowing before you buy, from reading your hardiness zone to what actually shows up on the truck.

How to read your hardiness zone

Edina 63537 sits in USDA zone 6a. Your zone describes the coldest winter a tree can reliably survive. In a mid-country climate you get the widest catalog: most shade, flowering and evergreen trees qualify, and the filter mostly guards the borderline picks.

Typical winter lows here run about -10 to -5 F. Half-zones matter at the edges: two steps on the map are about five winter degrees, which is enough to decide whether a borderline pick belongs in your cart.

What freight delivery actually means

Your tree arrives large, nursery-grown and at a usable landscape size, secured to a pallet and delivered curbside or as close as the truck can safely get. Before delivery day, run through this quick checklist:

  • Someone can be home to receive the tree and look it over on arrival.
  • A freight truck can reach your street, with room to stop or turn around.
  • You know where you want it dropped: curbside, or as close as the driver can safely get.
  • Access watch-outs are handled: narrow driveways, soft ground after rain, low branches or wires.

The guarantee, in plain terms

If a tree does not survive its first year, we replace it free, shipping included. The promise works because every tree ships zone-matched and nursery-grown, so it arrives set up to succeed in your climate rather than gambling against it.

Coverage runs a full year from delivery. If something goes wrong, contact the team and they arrange the replacement. No store-credit games, no fine-print maze.
