How about persimmon? It might be a smidge warm for it there (we are in 9b and it's perfect for them) but they are pretty resistant to conditions like mist and wind.
Another option, maybe off the wall, is kumquat. Mine pretty much goes to sleep for the winter, they stay small, they like good drainage.
Last maybe loquat. They're also tough as nails.

Usually, native varieties seem to do better.
I have no idea if native would be in the form of dwarf trees.
