How Allentown Compares to Other Areas
Every planting region has its own climate quirks. Here is how Allentown stacks up against other parts of the country.
ZIP 93653 in Raymond, California, sits in zone 9b with winter lows of 25 to 30 degrees F. That warmth means tropicals and citrus grow there year-round, but they also face dry summers. Locally, that points buyers toward trees that tolerate both cold winters and humid summers, like Cedar Elm and Little Gem Magnolia.
ZIP 33877 in Waverly, Florida, belongs to zone 10a with winter lows of 30 to 35 degrees F. Florida's heat and humidity push the tree selection toward heat-tolerant palms and magnolias. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward species that handle a true winter chill, so fruit trees like Elberta Peach perform better in Allentown than in Florida.
ZIP 85254 in Scottsdale, Arizona, is also zone 10a with lows of 30 to 35 degrees F, but it has intense summer heat and drought. The practical difference is that Allentown trees need cold hardiness, not drought tolerance. Shade trees like Cedar Elm and flowering redbuds are natural picks here, while Arizona yards lean toward native desert species.
What this means for your Allentown order: focus on trees proven for zone 7a, they handle cold winters, humid summers, and produce reliable growth year after year.
