How Mount Crawford Compares to Other Areas

Here are three other ZIPs that show how different climates change tree choices.

ZIP 54642 in Melrose, Wisconsin (WI) is zone 4b with winter lows -25 to -20 F. That rules out many trees that grow fine in Mount Crawford. Natchez Crape Myrtle would not survive there. Japanese maples like Bloodgood are hardy to zone 5b, so even the hardest Japanese maples struggle in Melrose. In practice, buyers there lean toward cold-hardy oaks and maples, not crape myrtles or figs.

ZIP 82084 in Tie Siding, Wyoming (WY) is zone 5b with lows -15 to -10 F. That is still colder than your 7a. Palms and tropicals are not viable there at all; the winters kill them. For your cart, that means you have more variety: you can grow Chicago Hardy Fig, which would need heavy protection in Tie Siding. The gap in hardiness lets you try more ornamental trees.

ZIP 05489 in Underhill, Vermont (VT) is zone 5a with lows -20 to -15 F. Fruit and citrus viability is almost zero there without a greenhouse. In Mount Crawford, you can grow figs and even some stone fruits. That gap changes the local shortlist to include fruit trees as a real option. In Underhill, the shortlist is mostly shade and evergreens.

For buyers in Mount Crawford, the warmer zone means you can pick from a wider palette. Shade trees, flowering trees, and fruit trees all belong in your cart here.
