How Salt Lake City Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 57003 in Baltic, South Dakota (SD) sits in zone 5a with winter lows of -20 to -15 F. That kind of cold rules out Japanese maples and crape myrtles, both common in warmer zones. Locally, that points buyers toward species that handle both mild winters and dry summers, such as Chinese Elm and Texas Mountain Laurel.

ZIP 54417 in Brokaw, Wisconsin (WI) falls in zone 4b, where winter lows drop to -25 to -20 F. The colder zone limits the palette to the hardiest trees, such as oaks and native conifers. The practical difference is that zone 7 allows flowering ornamentals and fruit trees that would not survive a Wisconsin winter.

ZIP 82324 in Elk Mountain, Wyoming (WY) is zone 5a with lows of -20 to -15 F and a much drier climate. Drought-tolerant natives dominate there, while the milder conditions in ZIP 84117 allow for a broader mix, including palms and tropical accents. Here, the zone usually pushes the choice toward the widest variety of species among these areas, making 84117 a versatile spot for tree buyers.

For buyers in 84117, the contrast means you can choose from a broader selection than colder or drier locations, including shade, flowering, and fruit trees.
