Growing in Zone 6

Planting notes from the nursery

  • Coastal Zone 6 means wind: stake young trees and consider salt exposure near shore.

  • Milder winters wake plants early — site frost-tender bloomers away from cold hollows.

  • Fall planting is arguably better than spring here; roots run well into December.
