How Gilbert Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 19702 in Newark, Delaware (DE) sits in zone 7b with winter lows of 5 to 10 F. That colder climate limits flowering tree options. In Gilbert's zone 9b, the mild winters allow a longer bloom season for crape myrtles and redbuds. For your cart, that means you can enjoy summer-long color without worrying about late frost killing flower buds.

ZIP 80498 in Silverthorne, Colorado (CO) is in zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15 F. Such severe cold rules out many evergreens for privacy screens. That gap changes the local shortlist to cold-hardy junipers and pines. Here, you can plant Italian Cypress or other zone 9 evergreens that would never survive in Colorado.

ZIP 06607 in Bridgeport, Connecticut (CT) is zone 7a with winter lows of 0 to 5 F. Palms and tropicals are not viable there because of hard freezes. In practice, buyers here lean toward palms like Mediterranean Fan Palm and tropical-looking plants that thrive in zone 9.
