How San Francisco Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 50650 in Lamont, Iowa (IA) sits in zone 5a. Winter lows drop to -20 to -15 degrees F. That kills trees that are not extremely cold-hardy. Japanese maples, for example, struggle there without protection. In San Francisco, Japanese maples grow easily because the winter stays mild. The practical difference is that in Lamont you must choose trees rated to zone 5 or colder, while trees for zone 10 thrive here.

ZIP 83352 in Shoshone, Idaho (ID) is zone 6a with winter lows -10 to -5 degrees F. Drought tolerance matters less there because summers are shorter and cooler. In Shoshone, the choice leans toward trees that survive deep cold and recover from late frost. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward trees that can handle dry summers and never need frost protection. Arbequina Olive would fail in Shoshone but grows fine here.

ZIP 60175 in Saint Charles, Illinois (IL) is zone 5b with winter lows -15 to -10 degrees F. Heat and humidity are moderate in summer. Many trees that like warmth, such as the Desert Willow, cannot survive the cold. Locally, that points buyers toward cold-hardy species like Chicago Hardy Fig, which survives the freeze but also does well in San Francisco. The takeaway for buyers: your mild winters let you choose from a much larger palette of trees. You can pick species that would be risky in colder zones, like tropicals and many broadleaf evergreens.
