Frequently Asked Questions

When do trees ship to La Jara?

Trees ship in the spring window rather than midwinter because of our cold zone 5b climate. That means your order will queue for early spring delivery, when it's safe to plant.

What are the best shade trees for La Jara?

The Allee Chinese Elm and American Sycamore are top picks. Both handle the winter lows of -15 to -10 degrees and give you a wide canopy for summer cooling.

What size do the trees arrive at?

Trees arrive at a usable landscape size, typically 5 to 7 feet tall in a 5- to 7-gallon container. They are nursery-grown and ready to plant, not tiny seedlings.

What is the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee?

If a tree does not survive its first year in your yard, Arbor Buddy replaces it free of charge. The guarantee covers the replacement tree and its shipping, not planting costs.

How La Jara Compares to Other Areas

The same tree that thrives in La Jara might struggle elsewhere, and vice versa. Here's how our climate compares with three other places.

Take ZIP 74032 in Glencoe, Oklahoma (OK), which sits in zone 7a with winter lows of 0 to 5 F. La Jara's colder winters rule out some Japanese maples that do fine in Glencoe's milder climate. That gap changes the local shortlist to only the hardiest Japanese maples, while in Glencoe the choices are wider. For your cart, that means you stick with species proven in zone 5b.

Now look at ZIP 97369 in Otter Rock, Oregon (OR), zone 9a with lows of 20 to 25 F. La Jara has much colder winters, so privacy screening options differ. Otter Rock can plant many broadleaf evergreens; La Jara relies on conifers like the Skyrocket Juniper. For your cart, that means your privacy screen is built from cold-hardy evergreens that stay green through ice and snow.

Finally, ZIP 70078 in New Sarpy, Louisiana (LA) sits in zone 9b with lows of 25 to 30 F. There, flowering trees like crape myrtles and tropicals bloom from spring to fall. La Jara's colder winters limit flowering options to those that need winter chill, like the Wisteria Tree and Elberta Peach. In practice, buyers here lean toward cold-tough ornamentals that bloom reliably despite frost.

What these contrasts mean for your cart: the trees that work in La Jara are the ones built for real cold. Stick with zone 5b species, and you'll get a yard that thrives.
