How Saint Louis Compares to Other Areas
Consider ZIP 05143 in Chester, Vermont (VT). It lies in zone 5b with winter lows -15 to -10 F. That cold limits Japanese maple choices. For your cart, that means you would skip laceleaf maples unless you protect them; here in Saint Louis, you have more freedom to plant laceleaf maples like Viridis Japanese Laceleaf Maple.
ZIP 54027 in Wilson, Wisconsin (WI) falls in zone 4b, with lows -25 to -20 F. Flowering choices like crape myrtles do not survive such cold. That gap changes the local shortlist to cold-hardy ornamentals; here, you can plant Dynamite Crape Myrtle for summer color.
ZIP 82081 in Meriden, Wyoming (WY) is zone 5a, lows -20 to -15 F. Privacy options are limited to cold-tolerant evergreens. In practice, buyers there lean toward evergreens that stay green year-round; you have more deciduous options like Pond Cypress for wet areas.
So for your yard in Saint Louis, you can choose from a wider range of trees than buyers in colder zones.
