Just a plug for Tipuana tipu I have one in 9a that proved to be very hardy even as a small tree. I only had minor dieback at temps that killed queen palms (2010) and it was only a sapling at that time.

Nice selection, thanks for posting Eric!

 It has been a really busy week so I can't commit to going just yet. I'm definitely interested in a couple of the trees on the list though.
