Looking for lists of trees for a specific area

Oct 03, 2004 3 Replies

After three hurricanes in a row, we suddenly have more room in our yard than we did before, but I want to put my trees back. I'm looking for a book or website that allows me to browse by zones.



I'm in hardiness zone 9 and heat zone 9. So far none of the books or sites has offered what I want and I'm starting to feel unloved. Can anyone help?



Thanks, chris


Zone 9 encompasses swamps and deserts. Trees don't depend just on zone, they depend upon climate also.

Also contact your County Extension Service (County Agent).

Usually, you local agricultural extension office (or agricultural cooperative service) can help you with this. Although generally a state agency, they work with county governments; so look in your phone book under your county's listings. Or look on the Web in your county's Web site.

Look around the neighborhood, which kinds didn't get destroyed.
