How Augusta Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 29424 in Charleston, South Carolina (SC) sits in zone 9a with winter lows from 20 to 25 degrees. Charleston can grow many Japanese maples but needs shade to avoid heat stress. The practical difference is that in Charleston, laceleaf maples like Tamukeyama may scorch more easily. In Augusta, the cooler summers and zone 6b allow these maples to thrive with less risk.

ZIP 57012 in Canistota, South Dakota (SD) falls in zone 5a with lows from -20 to -15 degrees. Canistota is much drier, so trees must tolerate drought and extreme cold. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward moisture-loving trees. Augusta gets more humidity and rainfall, making sweetgum and crape myrtle better suited than drought-adapted species.

ZIP 98417 in Tacoma, Washington (WA) is zone 8b with lows from 15 to 20 degrees. Tacoma has a cooler, wetter climate that demands less heat tolerance. Locally, that points buyers toward heat-tolerant ornamentals. In Augusta, summer heat and humidity favor crape myrtles and figs that benefit from warm conditions.

For your yard in Augusta, choose trees that handle cold winters and humid summers, like those listed in the featured table.
