For some of us, winter landscapes are rather bleak. All we can see from the windows of our cozy homes are colorless lawns, gray skies and bare tree canopies.
We’ve lost the shade from summer and the bright foliage hues from fall. But are your trees missing anything other than leaves in winter?
Certain trees are not able to survive subzero temperatures, frosted grounds and dangling icicles. However, depending on the region in which you live, other trees don’t even flinch at the arrival of winter’s wrath. Read below to find out which trees are hearty enough to survive the winter season:
If you live in the northern or mid-Atlantic U.S. or Canada, you’re no stranger to freezing winters. Make sure you have the right trees planted that can make it through the harsh season.
Although the southern U.S. typically does not experience winters like the north and Canada, there is still the occasional temperature drop, frost or snowfall. Be sure to plant trees that can tolerate a not-so-typical southern winter, just in case Mother Nature strikes.
If you happen to have trees planted that may not be so winter-resistant, check out our complete winter resource center or download our winter checklist to help them have healthy, happy winter.
