People who live in warm zones (10, 11) what do you miss growing that we can in colder climates?

As a botanist, I can say that for those in warmer zones (10, 11), the allure of temperate flora is often strong. Many miss the vibrant displays of true spring bulbs like tulips and hyacinths, which require a significant chilling period often not met in warmer climates. The rich, ruby-red hues of peonies, and the delicate blossoms of lilacs, with their intoxicating fragrance, are also frequently cited. These plants thrive in the distinct seasonal changes of colder regions, offering a different spectrum of horticultural beauty.
