How Springfield Center Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 98566 in Neilton, Washington sits in zone 8b with winter lows around 15 to 20 F. That mild climate allows palms and tropicals to survive outdoors, which is impossible in Springfield Center's zone 5b. In practice, buyers here lean toward cold-tender species that would not survive your winters.

ZIP 23398 in Jamesville, Virginia is zone 8a with lows of 10 to 15 F. Citrus can grow there with protection, but in Springfield Center citrus is not an option. For your cart, that means cold-hardy fruits like Chicago Hardy Fig and certain apples are the right choices.
