Frequently Asked Questions

When do trees ship to New Martinsville?

Shipments to ZIP 26155 happen in spring and autumn. We skip summer heat and winter cold to reduce stress on the tree. Your order will be timed based on zone 6 weather.

What are the best shade trees for New Martinsville?

Shumard Oak is a top pick because it grows fast and shows red fall color. Other oaks and maples that tolerate zone 6 also work well. Look for species with broad canopies and cold hardiness.

What size do the trees arrive at?

What is the 1-Year Thrive Guarantee?

If your tree dies from any cause within the first year, Arbor Buddy sends a free replacement. The guarantee covers the purchase price. It gives you peace of mind when planting in your zone.

How New Martinsville Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 97217 in Portland, Oregon (OR) sits in zone 9a with winter lows of 20 to 25 degrees F. That's much milder than your zone 6b. Japanese maples like Tamukeyama thrive there in almost any spot, but in your climate you need a more cold-hardy variety or careful siting. That gap changes the local shortlist to tougher, zone-6-tested maples or other accent trees instead.

ZIP 70714 in Baker, Louisiana (LA) also falls in zone 9a with lows of 20 to 25 degrees F. Privacy options there lean on fast-growing evergreens that never see a hard freeze. In your New Martinsville yard, evergreens like Eastern Redcedar and Brodie Eastern Red Cedar are better choices because they shrug off cold snaps. For your cart, that means focusing on native or northern-hardy evergreens for screening.

ZIP 27512 in Cary, North Carolina (NC) is zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 degrees F. That climate suits a wider range of flowering trees, including some that need less cold. Your zone 6b is colder, so you'll rely on hardy bloomers like Forest Pansy Eastern Redbud. In practice, buyers here lean toward the most cold-tolerant redbuds and fruit trees that need more chill hours.

For New Martinsville, these contrasts show that your tree choices need to handle both cold winters and warm, humid summers. The species on this page are specifically matched to that reality.

Freight delivery and the Thrive Guarantee

Arbor Buddy ships large nursery-grown trees to ZIP 26155 by freight. That means a truck brings your tree to your driveway or curb, not dropped at a depot. You'll need to be home to receive it and look it over. Trees are zone-matched before they leave, so yours arrive ready for your yard.

The 1-Year Thrive Guarantee covers free replacement if the tree doesn't survive the first growing season. In zone 6, shipments are timed for spring and autumn, skipping temperature extremes. That avoids stress from late frosts or summer heat.

Before delivery day, check:

  • Someone must be home to accept the tree and inspect it.
  • The freight truck needs a clear path to stop or turn around on your street.
  • Decide where you want the tree dropped; a level spot near the planting area works best.
  • Look out for long or narrow driveways, soft ground, or low branches that could block access.

Buying trees in New Martinsville 26155: what locals should know

Ordering a large tree online is not like ordering a lamp. Here is what is worth knowing before you buy, from reading your hardiness zone to what actually shows up on the truck.

How to read your hardiness zone

New Martinsville 26155 sits in USDA zone 6b. Your zone describes the coldest winter a tree can reliably survive. In a mid-country climate you get the widest catalog: most shade, flowering and evergreen trees qualify, and the filter mostly guards the borderline picks.

Typical winter lows here run about -5 to 0 F. Half-zones matter at the edges: two steps on the map are about five winter degrees, which is enough to decide whether a borderline pick belongs in your cart.

What freight delivery actually means

Your tree arrives large, nursery-grown and at a usable landscape size, secured to a pallet and delivered curbside or as close as the truck can safely get. Before delivery day, run through this quick checklist:

  • Someone can be home to receive the tree and look it over on arrival.
  • A freight truck can reach your street, with room to stop or turn around.
  • You know where you want it dropped: curbside, or as close as the driver can safely get.
  • Access watch-outs are handled: narrow driveways, soft ground after rain, low branches or wires.

The guarantee, in plain terms

If a tree does not survive its first year, we replace it free, shipping included. The promise works because every tree ships zone-matched and nursery-grown, so it arrives set up to succeed in your climate rather than gambling against it.

Coverage runs a full year from delivery. If something goes wrong, contact the team and they arrange the replacement. No store-credit games, no fine-print maze.
