Take ZIP 32753 in Debary, Florida (FL), zone 9b, winter lows 25 to 30 F. That Warm climate means many evergreen privacy screens that need chill hours won't grow well there. That gap changes the local shortlist to palms and tropical evergreens instead of the cedars and redcedars that suit Hardinsburg.

ZIP 85543 in Pima, Arizona (AZ), zone 8b, winter lows 15 to 20 F. The milder winter allows flowering trees like crape myrtles to bloom longer.
