Summers in Union County are hot and dry. Trees that tolerate heat and drought do best here. The Dura Heat River Birch and Brodie Eastern Red Cedar both handle the temperature swings. For fruit, the Chicago Hardy Fig is a standout, it resprouts from the roots after cold snaps.

How Des Moines Compares to Other Areas

Zone 6b places Des Moines in a middle climate. Other ZIP codes face different conditions that change what grows well.

ZIP 78762 in Austin, Texas (TX) sits in zone 9a with winter lows of 20 to 25 F. That milder cold lets Austin gardeners plant Japanese maples with less worry about winter dieback. In practice, buyers here lean toward heat-tolerant Japanese maples that handle summer scorch. For Des Moines, the same maples need a protected spot or extra mulch.

ZIP 98164 in Seattle, Washington (WA) is also zone 9a with winter lows 20 to 25 F. Palms and tropicals like windmill palm can survive there because the cold is brief and damp. For your cart, that means palms are a no-go in Des Moines, your -5 to 0 lows kill them. Stick with hardy evergreens like Brodie Eastern Red Cedar.

ZIP 57529 in Dallas, South Dakota (SD) is zone 5a with winter lows -20 to -15 F. That gap changes the local shortlist to super-cold-hardy fruit like Honeycrisp apple and Elberta peach (which needs roughly 800 chill hours). Des Moines has more flexibility: you can grow Chicago Hardy Fig and many ornamentals that wouldn't survive a South Dakota winter.

The takeaway: your zone 6b opens a wider selection than northern climates, but still rules out tropicals and tender plants. Stick with zone 6-tested trees for reliable results.
