How Syracuse Compares to Other Areas
ZIP 99353 in West Richland, Washington (WA) sits in zone 7b with winter lows of 5 to 10 F. That warmer zone allows a wider range of flowering trees like crape myrtles to flourish. For your cart, that means Merlot Redbud is a smart choice for spring color here because it tolerates colder winters.
ZIP 77230 in Houston, Texas (TX) falls in zone 9b with lows of 25 to 30 F. Houston can use broadleaf evergreens like Southern Magnolia year-round for privacy. That gap changes the local shortlist to Oakleaf Red Holly for year-round screening in your Syracuse yard.
ZIP 57051 in Oldham, South Dakota (SD) is zone 4b with winter lows of -25 to -20 F. Those extremes rule out many trees, including Japanese maples. In practice, buyers here lean toward trees that handle zone 6 winters, like Chinese Elm, for reliable growth.
These comparisons show that your zone 6a gives you a balanced selection of shade, flowering, and fruit trees without the extremes of much warmer or colder areas.
