How Seattle Compares to Other Areas
Your mild zone 9a in Seattle gives you choices that cooler areas lack. In ZIP 84020 in Draper, Utah (UT), zone 7a with winter lows 0 to 5 F, Japanese maples often suffer winter dieback. For your cart, that means you can plant Japanese maples without the same worry. The practical difference is you get more options for delicate foliage trees.
Compare with ZIP 37727 in Del Rio, Tennessee (TN), zone 7b with lows 5 to 10 F. That area has cold enough winters to kill many citrus trees. That gap changes the local shortlist to fruit like apples instead of lemons. In Seattle, you can grow Meyer Lemon in the ground because winter rarely hits 20 F.
ZIP 54106 in Black Creek, Wisconsin (WI), zone 5a with lows -20 to -15 F, needs hardy evergreens like Arborvitae. In practice, buyers here lean toward broadleaf evergreens like Oakleaf Red Holly, which would freeze in Wisconsin. The contrast shows that your privacy screening choices are wider and more varied in zone 9a.
