ZIP 57109 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota (SD) sits in zone 5a, with winter lows of -20 to -15 F. Winters there are much colder than yours here. The practical difference is that drought tolerance matters less there because the climate is naturally dry. Here, you need trees that handle both heat and occasional drought.
