Stone,
The biggest area I find problems with is plant material. Plant material for the Southeast and plant material for the Southwest are truly borderline in my region and many species I don't recommend planting because of our heat, humidity, rainfall, etc.. they don't fit in around here. We're right at the border of Zone 9b/10 (we're labeled 9b, but can easily be 10 with our climate--we had a 30 degree night last week, oen of the coldest in the past couple years...) and the heat really plays havoc on some plant varieties down here that are recommended for southeast and the moisture plays havoc on those recommended for southwest.
I guess that's probably the main problem I have with being labeled by region--I can't really think of anything else that would actually be affected negatively since most other aspects--hardscaping, maintenance, etc--would still pertain.
OK, so maybe I should refine my previous comment so say--Why don't we do plant material by Zone instead of Region?
