Trees for Zone 6 in Big Springs
Big Springs sits in USDA hardiness zone 6b. Typical winter lows here run about -5 to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. That zone lets you grow a broad mix of trees: from shade-tolerant maples to flowering plums and evergreens for privacy.
Summers are warm and humid, which helps trees like Dura Heat River Birch and Mexican Plum thrive. But the frost-free season is short enough that later-blooming fruit trees (like Bing cherry) need a sheltered location to avoid frost damage to blossoms. Most categories perform well here, as long as you choose trees for zone 6 with cold-hardy roots.
For the best results, pick trees that match both the winter low and the summer humidity. Japanese maples, for example, do well if planted in part shade. The local soil can vary, so amending with organic matter often helps young trees establish.
Frequently Asked Questions
How cold does it get in Big Springs in winter?
ZIP 26137 typically sees winter lows around -5 to 0 degrees Fahrenheit, which matches USDA zone 6b. This cold allows zone-hardy trees to survive without extra winter protection, though trees like the Bing cherry benefit from a spot shielded from late frosts.
When do trees ship to Big Springs?
In zone 6, shipments are timed for spring and autumn, skipping temperature extremes. That means you'll receive your tree during the mild windows that give it the best start for planting.
What size do the trees arrive at?
Trees from Arbor Buddy are nursery-grown at a usable landscape size. They are shipped in containers or as balled-and-burlapped, ready for you to plant. You get a tree that already has a developed root system and structure.
What is the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee?
If your tree does not survive its first year after planting, Arbor Buddy will replace it for free. The guarantee covers the tree itself; you just need to follow the basic planting and watering guide. It gives you confidence to order a tree suited to your zone without risk.

How Big Springs Compares to Other Areas
Tree choices shift when you look at other zones. Compare Big Springs (zone 6b, winter lows -5 to 0 F) with three different areas.
ZIP 78010 in Center Point, Texas (TX) sits in zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F. That much warmer climate makes Japanese maples riskier because they prefer cooler summers. In practice, buyers here lean toward heat-tolerant crape myrtles and live oaks instead of laceleaf maples. Here in 26137, Japanese maples like Tamukeyama can work well in part shade.
ZIP 98003 in Federal Way, Washington (WA) is also zone 8b, lows 15 to 20 F, but with a mild, wet winter. Citrus trees can survive there with protection, but in Big Springs, citrus is not viable. That gap changes the local shortlist to cold-hardy fruit like Bing cherry (which needs a pollinator) or apple trees. Locally, that pushes your fruit choices toward apples and certain plums.
ZIP 57735 in Edgemont, South Dakota (SD) is zone 4b with lows -25 to -20 F. That climate rules out many flowering ornamentals and nearly all Japanese maples. For your cart, that means trees that grow easily in Edgemont, like some pines and spruces, would be overkill here. In Big Springs, you have a much wider palette: redbuds, river birch, and weeping Atlas cedar all survive.
These contrasts show that Big Springs' zone 6b provides a middle ground: cold enough to exclude tropicals but mild enough for a broad mix of shade, fruit, and ornamental trees.
