ZIP 33573 in Sun City Center, Florida (FL) is zone 10a with typical winter lows 30 to 35 F. That area can grow many palms and tropicals without winter protection. In practice, buyers here lean toward palms like Chinese Windmill and fruit trees like Meyer Lemon for year round outdoor growth.

ZIP 49710 in Barbeau, Michigan (MI) is zone 4b with lows -25 to -20 F. That makes fruit trees like Meyer Lemon impossible outdoors. For your cart, that means you can grow citrus in zone 8b with protection. That gap changes the local shortlist to include cold hardy fruit like figs if you want, but citrus is still possible.

ZIP 56587 in Vergas, Minnesota (MN) is zone 4a with lows -30 to -25 F. Flowering trees like crape myrtle are not hardy there. In practice, buyers there rely on smaller spring blooming trees.
