How Fairview Heights Compares to Other Areas
In Myakka City, Florida (ZIP 34251, zone 9b), winter lows stay between 25 and 30 degrees. That warmth allows citrus trees to fruit reliably. In practice, buyers here lean toward fruit and tropicals that would need extra care in colder zones.
Phoenix, Arizona (ZIP 85006, zone 10a) sees winter lows of 30 to 35 degrees. Its dry heat supports many palm varieties. That gap changes the local shortlist to palms and drought-tolerant species that differ from the options suited to your area.
Frontenac, Minnesota (ZIP 55026, zone 4b) endures winter lows of -25 to -20 degrees. Only the hardiest evergreens and deciduous trees survive there. For your cart, that means your privacy options in zone 7 are far broader, including hollies, magnolias, and junipers.
These contrasts show that Fairview Heights' moderate winters give you a wide selection of shade, flowering, and evergreen trees that would struggle in colder or hotter regions.
