I think Houston itself might be in 9a but just north of Houston it becomes 8b. However, whether zone 8 or 9, the point being that the same zone can exist in areas of the country that are very climactically dissimilar. Seattle is regarded as an ideal area for spring bulbs while southern parts of Texas are probably not.

Well Nery, good to hear about your Lilac Wonder; I planted those at my old place and they did return well the next year. I might get a 10% return on standard tulips. I planted some Rembrandts last year in an area that is never watered and I am interested to see if any return. You will have to let us know how yours do.
