How Newburgh Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 98006 in Bellevue, Washington (WA) sits in zone 8b with winter lows of 15 to 20 F. The milder winters there allow Japanese maples to grow without any cold stress at all. In practice, buyers here lean toward heat-tolerant selections like the Seiryu, our zone 6b summers are hotter, so afternoon shade becomes a smart habit.

ZIP 77726 in Beaumont, Texas (TX) is zone 9a with lows of 20 to 25 F. That area can grow palms and tropicals that simply won't survive a Newburgh winter. For your cart, that means you skip the tropicals entirely and focus on cold-hardy evergreens and shade trees that thrive where we get real freezes.

ZIP 57537 in Hayes, South Dakota (SD) falls in zone 4b with lows of -25 to -20 F. Their fruit tree choices are narrow, mostly apples and cold-hardy plums. That gap changes the local shortlist to options like Chicago Hardy Fig and cherry plum, which zone 6b handles easily while zone 4 cannot. In Newburgh, you get a much wider fruit palette.
