8. I'm not sure. My area looks like it is now 9a or 9b.

It was always 8 or 9. But another resource pinpointing my exact address claims that I am in area 10. I think that the 10 is correct. Los Angeles is right on the edge of different areas. We are low. But some areas are almost in the mountains. We have slightly different planting environments.

In spite of the problems with gauging LA, it's a great map.
