How Saint Joseph Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 99322 in Bickleton, Washington (WA) sits in zone 7b with winter lows of 5 to 10 F. That warmer climate makes Japanese maples a safer bet even in exposed spots. But here in zone 6, a maple like Emperor 1 needs a sheltered location away from drying winter winds. That gap changes the local shortlist to include more cold-hardy choices for accent spots.

ZIP 29810 in Allendale, South Carolina (SC) is zone 8b with lows of 15 to 20 F. Flowering color there comes from crape myrtles and redbuds that bloom earlier and longer. In practice, buyers here lean toward early spring bloomers like Mexican Plum and Elberta Peach, which need the chill of zone 6 to set fruit properly.
