ZIP 33609 in Tampa, Florida (FL) sits in zone 10a with winter lows around 30 to 35 degrees F. Tampa's mild winters mean fewer cold-hardy options needed. Privacy screens there often rely on tropical species like palms. That gap changes the local shortlist to evergreen options like Spartan Chinese Juniper or Oakland Holly for your Turtletown yard.
