Alpine
Alpine trees grow in the coldest climates of any trees. However even these tree's have limits on where they can grow. The latitudinal extreme for non-magical trees is generally between 68 and 72 degrees North or South. In Mountains they will grow at around 2-4000 ft between 40 degrees north and south and outside of that range they will grow to about 1-2000ft above sea level depending on other climate factors.
