Looking for lists of trees for a specific area
 
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.

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.
