How Kansas City Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 98013 in Burton, Washington (WA) sits in zone 9a with winter lows of 20 to 25 F. Flowering trees like crape myrtles bloom earlier there than in your colder zone. For your cart, that means you may not get the same show, but spring-flowering cherries and plums like Cherry Plum are still strong performers here.

ZIP 79364 in Slaton, Texas (TX) is zone 8a with winter lows of 10 to 15 F. Warmer winters allow evergreen screen options like Italian cypress that would not survive your -5 to 0 lows. That gap changes the local shortlist to cold-hardy hollies like Oakleaf Red Holly and protected arborvitae.

ZIP 57328 in Corsica, South Dakota (SD) is zone 5a with winter lows of -20 to -15 F. Palms and tropicals are not viable there at all. In practice, buyers there lean toward cold-hardy shade and fruit trees, while your zone 6b can support a broader mix including ornamental maples and even some borderline evergreens.

For you in zone 6b, the range of trees available is wider than in zone 5a but narrower than in warmer zones. That contrast helps you pick varieties that will thrive in your specific climate.
