How Monroe County Compares to Other Areas

Benton County, Oregon (OR) sits in zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F. That milder climate allows Japanese maples to thrive without leaf scorch. Locally, that points buyers toward the Crimson Queen Japanese Laceleaf Maple, but in Monroe County you need to plant it in partial shade to avoid scorch from summer heat.

Cavalier County, North Dakota (ND) is in zone 3b with winter lows from -35 to -30 F. The practical difference is that only the hardiest trees survive there. In Monroe County your choices are far wider: you can grow flowering crape myrtles and fruit trees that would not last one winter in Cavalier County.

Hoke County, North Carolina (NC) is zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 F. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward heat-tolerant and drought-resistant varieties. In Monroe County you still get enough cold to grow apples and need cold-hardy evergreens, whereas Hoke County growers lean toward Southern magnolias and crape myrtles.

For Monroe County buyers, the contrasts mean you can pick from a broad range of trees that handle both cold winters and warm summers. Stick with zone 6 rated trees and you will have many options.
