Why do you think a landscaper would use a zone 10 in a zone 9A region like here.

There's a 10 degree difference.

People should speak to the Plant Clinic folks first get their great plant book for FREE.
a few hours of overnight temps in the low 20s or even high teens probably wouldn't kill most mature bismarckias, but would burn the foliage badly. But they're a fast grower so they would produce a new crown pretty quick, thus the homeowner wouldn't have to look at an ugly, damaged palm for very long.
