How Houston Compares to Other Areas
ZIP 01844 in Methuen, Massachusetts (MA) sits in zone 6b with winter lows -5 to 0 F. Japanese maples survive there, but they need protection from harsh winds. In practice, buyers here lean toward hardier varieties like Emperor 1 Japanese Maple. For your cart, that means Houston buyers can choose from more tender Japanese maples without the same risks.
ZIP 20764 in Shady Side, Maryland (MD) is zone 8a with lows 10 to 15 F. Palms like Windmill Palm can survive there with winter protection, but tropicals like Queen Sago Palm struggle. For your cart, that means Houston's warmer zone 9b allows many palms to grow unprotected. That gap changes the local shortlist to include Chinese Windmill Palm and even some hardier tropicals.
ZIP 04234 in East Wilton, Maine (ME) is zone 5a with lows -20 to -15 F. Citrus trees cannot survive outdoors there, and many fruit trees require low-chill varieties. In practice, buyers here lean toward apples and pears that handle extreme cold. For your cart, that means Houston's mild winters allow citrus like Meyer Lemon and figs like Chicago Hardy to grow outside with little to no protection.
So for buyers in Houston, the contrasts mean you can grow olives, citrus, and palms that would freeze in northern zones, while still enjoying shade and privacy trees that flourish in your warm, humid climate.
