How Newport News Compares to Other Areas

ZIP 45001 in Addyston, Ohio sits in zone 6b with winter lows of -5 to 0 F. In Newport News, zone 8b means milder winters. Japanese maples like Tamukeyama are less likely to suffer winter dieback here. For your cart, that means you can grow laceleaf varieties that would struggle in Ohio's colder ground.

ZIP 67646 in Logan, Kansas is zone 6a with lows -10 to -5 F. Winters are much colder. Flowering trees like Cherry Plum bloom reliably in Newport News because spring comes earlier and frost is less frequent. That gap changes the local shortlist to include earlier-blooming ornamentals that risk bud damage in Kansas.
