How Claiborne County Compares to Other Areas

Bennington County, Vermont (VT), zones 5a to 5b, typical winter lows -20 to -10 F. In Vermont, winter cold rules out most fruit trees that need milder winters. Our Claiborne County winters rarely dip below 0 F, so you can grow sweet cherries like Bing and stone fruits. In practice, buyers here lean toward cold-hardy apples over cherries.

Jackson County, Wisconsin (WI), zone 4b, typical winter lows -25 to -20 F. Wisconsin's much colder climate kills many evergreen privacy trees that Claiborne County handles easily. Dwarf Palmetto Palm and Blue Atlas Cedar would not survive there. That gap changes the local shortlist to only the hardiest conifers. Your privacy options here include junipers and cedars that thrive in zone 7.

Fremont County, Wyoming (WY), zones 4b to 5a, typical winter lows -25 to -15 F. Wyoming is drier and colder. Citrus and tropicals are impossible. Yet in Claiborne County you can grow a Dwarf Palmetto Palm as an accent. For your cart, that means you have a much wider palette of flowering and ornamental trees than these colder areas allow.
