Trees for Zone 5 in Otego

Otego sits in USDA hardiness zone 5b. Typical winter lows run about -15 to -10 degrees Fahrenheit. That limits which trees can survive without extra protection. Broadly, deciduous trees like sycamore and apple handle these conditions easily. Evergreens such as the Hetz Columnaris Chinese Juniper also adapt well.

Summers here are warm but not extreme. Heat and humidity are moderate, so leaf scorch is only a concern for Japanese maples placed in full afternoon sun. For those, a spot with afternoon shade works best. Overall, shade trees, flowering ornamentals, and fruit trees that mature before the first frost are reliable choices in Otsego County.
