How Walkertown Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 05489 in Underhill, Vermont (VT) sits in zone 5a with winter lows dropping to -20 to -15 F. That cold excludes many flowering trees that thrive in Walkertown. For your cart, that means flowering options like Mexican Plum and Meyer Lemon are not viable there; here they are easy choices.
