I live in Brisbane and regularly keep some species outside all year round
-P. signifer, P. mellis, M. duboulayi,( M. mccullochi (Cardwell),
Cairnsicthys, M. monticola previously) at present.

I have had both our local species of Hardyhead do well too ( stercus &
marjoris)

However we dont usually have persisting below 10 C days ( thank goodness)

Regards,
Bruce.
