I'm from Louisiana and have lived in Yakima, Washington for 8 years now have a yard and home and would like to know if I can plant a Mamosa Tree (not sure on spelling) in this region. Makes wounderful shade and beautiful blooms. Down home in the winter when they where bare the wind would blow and the limbs would rub together and sound like bones. Missing these Lovely trees.

I think Dale was interested in your planting zone, not your time zone. I'm going to guess you're in about zone 6 or 7 so they would probably be hardy in your area, but if you're in zone 6 you may need to protect it for the first couple winters. Here's a page that has a zone map and a link to some places that you can zoom in with more detail if you need to http://davesgarden.com/zone/

They're supposed to be hardy to 6a so they should be OK, but you might protect them the first couple years if you get a bad cold snap.
