What trees grow fastest in Franklin Park?
Mexican White Oak is among the fastest-growing shade trees for zone 7a, adding several feet per year. Blue Atlas Cedar grows at a moderate pace. For quick privacy, consider fast-growing evergreens like Leyland cypress from the evergreen category.

How Franklin Park Compares to Other Areas
ZIP 32604 in Gainesville, Florida (FL) sits in zone 9a with winter lows of 20 to 25 F. That warmth opens up citrus and low-chill fruit options that wouldn't survive your 0 to 5 F winters in Franklin Park. In practice, buyers here lean toward orange and lemon trees you can't grow in New Jersey. For your cart in 08823, that means sticking with apples, cherries, and peaches that need more winter chill.
ZIP 86403 in Lake Havasu City, Arizona (AZ) is zone 10a with lows of 30 to 35 F. Tropical palms and rare fruit trees thrive there year-round. That gap changes the local shortlist to cold-hardy palms like Dwarf Palmetto and temperate species. For your cart in Franklin Park, that means choosing palms that tolerate your occasional deep freeze.
ZIP 56229 in Cottonwood, Minnesota (MN) sits in zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15 F. Hardy evergreens like spruce and fir are standard for screening there. For your cart, that means you can use a broader mix: evergreens plus dense deciduous shrubs that still provide winter cover in your milder zone.
For Franklin Park, the contrast shows you can blend cold-tolerant evergreens, flowering trees, and even a hardy palm - a mix that wouldn't work in Minnesota and isn't needed in Florida.
