No - much too cold. Jujubes are hardy to zone 5, at BEST.

Do you think that this jujube would be hardy in zone 3 (Usually a killing frost at the end of May)?

Kuon, if you want to try a very GOOD jujube, contact Roger Meyer "Roger
Meyer" <exoticfruit@95net.com <mailto:exoticfruit@95net.com> > and get the northern Chinese variety "Honey
Jar". It is the sweetest fresh jujube anywhere.
