How Shelocta Compares to Other Areas

Different climates change which trees thrive. Compare Shelocta with three other areas.

ZIP 20216 in Washington, District of Columbia (DC) sits in zone 8a with winter lows of 10 to 15 F. That milder climate allows palms and tropicals to survive. In practice, buyers here lean toward palms like Windmill Palm. Your colder winters rule out those options. Instead, stick with cold-hardy oaks and maples.

ZIP 35034 in Brent, Alabama (AL) is also zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 F. The longer growing season makes citrus and other tropical fruit viable. For your cart, that means you cannot grow oranges or lemons outdoors. But Chicago Hardy Fig works well, as does Bur Oak.

ZIP 72947 in Mulberry, Arkansas (AR) shares zone 8a and similar winter lows. Warm spells bring early flowering color from plants like magnolias. That gap changes the local shortlist to early bloomers like Texas Redbud for Shelocta, since your springs arrive later.

What does this mean for you? Choose trees that handle your -5 to 0 F lows and shorter growing season. The featured trees above are already picked for that.
