Some trees, but not much else. There are so many plants we <i>can</i> grow that are evergreen, and plants that need a winter chill are basically annuals here.

While I'm in no hurry to have spring come to our PNW latitudes just yet, I DO hope you get to keep the replenishing cool weather for quite a bit longer in California.
