Unrealistic I know, but I'd like the vegetation of my area (Dfa climate, close to Dfb) as it looks in summer, year-round. The grass around here is gorgeous in late spring/summer if the spring was wet enough.
Something of a mix between deciduous trees from continental climates or maybe some subarctic varieties as well with some northern evergreen vegetation. I'm guessing a hemiboreal type of climate would provide this vegetation.

Can you plant any deciduous tree where you live? You are on a 11A climate right?

There's actually some deciduous trees here. There's some variety of maple here that's actually quite common once you're away from the densely populated areas along the coast. Not sure if bald cypress is considered deciduous but they're everywhere here as well.
You definitely see more when you're in inland FL though. And certainly more in central and north FL.

Funchal, Madeira is 11b and it has some decidious trees which lose their leaves in the winter. It's also because it has few decidious trees planted in overall, but they also fall even being on a 11b zone.
I think it is because the winter is not warm enough. Miami is very warm in winter, the averages of Miami in January are like the ones from Funchal in June (highs) and May (lows).

You do realize such places tend to be grey, barren, and lifeless (if they're not encased in ice and snow) eight months of the year don't you?
