Trees for Zone 7 in Providence
Providence sits in USDA zone 7a, where winter lows bottom out around 0 to 5 degrees Fahrenheit. That rules out tropicals and cold-tender citrus, but opens the door to a broad selection of shade trees, flowering trees, and evergreens.
Summer heat and humidity are common in Providence. Trees like the American Sycamore and White Dogwood handle both well. The Red Dragon Japanese Laceleaf Maple needs some afternoon shade to avoid scorch, but the zone itself is fine. For fruit, the Chicago Hardy Fig is one of the few that survives a hard freeze and still produces.
Many trees for zone 7 in Providence flower reliably because they get enough winter chill. That includes the White Dogwood and the Oakleaf Red Holly. Shrubs like Phenomenal Lavender also tolerate the humidity here.

How Providence Compares to Other Areas
Comparing ZIP 02909 to other regions shows how your tree choices shift. Zone 7a here is warmer than many parts of the country, which gives you more options.
ZIP 05847 in Lowell, Vermont (VT) sits in zone 4b with winter lows of -25 to -20 F. That extreme cold rules out Japanese laceleaf maples. In practice, buyers there lean toward tough evergreens and cold-hardy shade trees. For your cart, that means you can safely grow maples like the Red Dragon Japanese Laceleaf Maple, which thrives in 7a.
ZIP 53508 in Belleville, Wisconsin (WI) is zone 5a with lows -20 to -15 F. Palms and tropicals are not viable there. For your cart, that means you can consider borderline plants like the Chicago Hardy Fig that survive a hard freeze. The warmer winter in Providence gives you that edge.
ZIP 82844 in Wolf, Wyoming (WY) also falls in zone 5a with -20 to -15 F lows. Fruit trees that need mild winters, like many citrus, won't work there. That gap changes the local shortlist to only cold-hardy fruit like apples. In Providence you can grow figs and other temperate fruit.
What this means for your Providence cart: you can pick from a wider range of trees than colder zones allow. Focus on trees that suit your specific summer humidity and soil.
