How Morton Compares to Other Areas

Morton's zone 8b is warm and humid. Compare that to cooler zones and the differences shift what you can plant.

ZIP 50107 in Grand Junction, Iowa (IA) sits in zone 5a with winter lows as cold as -20 to -15 F. That rules out citrus, crape myrtles, and most Japanese maples. Locally, the zone usually pushes the choice toward hardy shade trees and evergreens that handle deep freezes. The practical difference is that Morton can grow year-round bloomers and tender fruit trees that Iowa cannot.

ZIP 83455 in Victor, Idaho (ID) is also zone 5a with the same brutal winter lows. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward cold-hardy evergreens like Blue Atlas Cedar and deciduous shade trees that can take dry cold. Morton's 8b allows you to plant palms and laceleaf maples without winter dieback. Locally, that points buyers toward citrus and magnolias that Idaho can't even try.

ZIP 62249 in Highland, Illinois (IL) is zone 6b with lows -5 to 0 F. That is still colder than Morton. Heat and humidity tolerance matter more here than in Illinois, but zone 6b can grow many of the same shade trees and crape myrtles. Locally, that points buyers toward crape myrtles and hydrangeas, which Highland can grow with less worry about summer stress.

For Morton, the contrast means you can plant with confidence that citrus, crape myrtles, and laceleaf maples will thrive as long as you give them the right spot.
