I live in Yakima, I think we are a little warmer and drier than Pullman.
Houseplant horror story-
I was given a start of Hawaiian Ginger, grew it in premium soil, potted it on etc. until it was about 7' high (including the pot) and over 5' wide. I don't have very much room but was thrilled at the thought of lovely, fragrant flowers. It bloomed this spring, aaggh! The scent was so overpowering indoors it made my eyes swell, I think I could literally taste it. I had to cut off all the flowers.
Thanks again everyone for the warm welcome and for corrupting me, I think I have enough light for a Catt or two....Rainshadow

Not
all of them...only about half. I may or may not have chosen my dorm room purely based on the health of my plants.
I drive through Yakima on the way to school. I think you're right, it is a bit warmer and drier, though Pullman is dry enough to my westside sensibilities.
Yikes, I'll have to remember not to grow Hawaiian ginger. I have the same problem with strong scents.
