How Simpson Compares to Other Areas
Tree choices shift when you compare Simpson to colder climates. In ZIP 69033 in Imperial, Nebraska (NE), zone 5b brings winter lows of -15 to -10 F. That cold rules out many Japanese maples that thrive in Simpson's zone 7a. For your cart, that means Japanese laceleaf maples like Seiryu are a safe bet here, while in Imperial they would struggle without extra protection.
In ZIP 58758 in Martin, North Dakota (ND), zone 4a sees winter lows of -30 to -25 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to very cold-hardy species only. In Simpson, flowering trees such as crape myrtle are reliable, but in northern North Dakota they are not an option. The milder winters expand the palette for color.
In ZIP 03289 in Winnisquam, New Hampshire (NH), zone 5b with -15 to -10 F winters, privacy screening is limited to conifers like arborvitae. In practice, buyers here lean toward broadleaf evergreens and cypress, while in Simpson you have more choices including Carolina sapphire and even palms for a tropical accent. The practical takeaway: Simpson's zone 7a opens up a wider range of shade, flowering, and ornamental trees than colder zones allow.
