How Highland County Compares to Other Areas

Beaufort County, South Carolina (SC) sits in zone 9a to 9b with winter lows of 20 to 30 F. That area rarely sees freezing weather, so trees like crepe myrtles and citrus thrive year-round. Locally, that points buyers toward trees that handle heat and humidity, which is less of a concern here. In Highland County, your tree needs to survive freezing ground, not just warm winters.

Campbell County, South Dakota (SD) is zone 4a to 4b with typical winter lows of -30 to -20 F. That is far colder than Highland County. The practical difference is that many broadleaf evergreens and Japanese maples cannot make it there without severe damage or death. Here, zone 6b lets you plant a wider pallet, including Coral Bark Maple and Carolina Sapphire Cypress.

Atascosa County, Texas (TX) is zone 9a with winter lows of 20 to 25 F. That climate is hot and dry most of the year. The zone usually pushes the choice toward drought-tolerant trees like live oaks and desert willows. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-hardy species that also tolerate humidity. Your best bet is trees that handle both cold winters and humid summers, like the American Sycamore or Honeycrisp Apple.

The contrast shows what belongs in your cart here: trees that endure -5 to 0 F winters, not just heat or mild cold.
