How Cairo Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 96027 in Etna, California sits in zone 8a with winter lows around 10 to 15 degrees F. That milder climate allows trees like crape myrtles and southern magnolias that may struggle in colder winters. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-hardy selections like Cedar Elm and Shumard Oak.

ZIP 20391 in Washington Navy Yard, District of Columbia also falls in zone 8a but experiences higher humidity. The practical difference is that trees there must handle humid summers, while your trees need to withstand summer drought and cold winters. That makes Liberty Holly a reliable evergreen choice locally.
