How Chalmers Compares to Other Areas

In ZIP 98225 in Bellingham, Washington (WA), zone 8b, winter lows are 15 to 20 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to a wider range of broadleaf evergreens and privacy screens like camellias and hollies. Here, your colder winters limit some of those, but American Pillar Arborvitae still works great for screening.

For ZIP 79227 in Crowell, Texas (TX), zone 8a, winter lows 10 to 15 F allow early-blooming flowering trees like redbuds and dogwoods without frost worries. For your cart, that means choosing flowering trees that handle more cold. The Wisteria Tree and Elberta Peach both bloom reliably here.
