Trees for Zone 6 in Thompsontown

Zone 6b brings winter lows from -5 to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. That cold rules out tender palms and citrus but is perfect for the trees listed above. The growing season is long enough for shade, fruit, and flowering trees to thrive.

In Thompsontown, the land varies from open fields near the Susquehanna to built-up older sections. Drier, gravelly soil pockets are common. That suits tough native species like Eastern Redcedar and adaptable elms. The humidity of central Pennsylvania summers can stress Japanese maples, so place them in partial shade. Evergreens like Spartan Juniper sail through the winters without burn.

For a well-rounded yard, blend a shade tree with a few evergreens and a flowering dogwood. The zone 6 climate gives you plenty of choices among trees for zone 6 in Thompsontown.
