How Oakwood Compares to Other Areas

Oakwood's cold winters set it apart from warmer growing zones. Comparing the area to Reseda, California, shows the biggest difference.

ZIP 91337 in Reseda, California (CA) sits in zone 10a, with winter lows around 30 to 35 degrees F. There, trees never see frost. The focus is on drought tolerance and summer heat. Locally, that points buyers toward trees that can take long dry spells and high sun. In Oakwood, the selection leans toward cold-hardy shade and evergreens that can handle freezing temperatures.

ZIP 31639 in Nashville, Georgia (GA) is zone 9a, with winter lows of 20 to 25 degrees F. Winters are mild, but summers are hot and humid. The practical difference is that Nashville can grow many more flowering and tropical plants. Oakwood's colder winters rule out those options. Instead, the local choices emphasize trees that stay dormant safely through deep cold snaps.

ZIP 35136 in Rockford, Alabama (AL) is zone 8a, with winter lows of 10 to 15 degrees F. Winters are still cold, but not as harsh as Oakwood. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward trees that can handle both heat and cold. In Oakwood, the colder lows mean extra winter protection for some species. For Japanese maples, for example, a sheltered location is more important than in Rockford.

What this means for Oakwood buyers: your shopping list can skip tender tropicals and focus on zone-6-rated species that thrive through -10 degree winters. That includes shade, privacy, fruit, and accent trees that are proven in your climate.
