Mine is doing well in Panama City so far. Its barely a sapling, but its withstanding the heat just fine. The growth has slowed a bit, but should pick back up in October. I think the trick is to let them mature a bit before planting them. They are remarkably resilient trees after 5 or so years of age (more a size of tree and roots thing than time alive), but in their first few years they are quite sensitive and vulnerable. Best chances for survival will be waiting for the roots to fill a 10 gallon pot and about 5ft or so tall and planting in late September to mid October when the summer heat breaks-- first couple years might be best to put inside from mid june to mid october so the roots can mature. Then the roots have a good 9 months to expand into the ground to withstand the summer heat. I have seen these survive the summer heat in Fresno and Bakersfield in 2020 and 2021 where every day was 110+ for 2-3 months so I think they will be fine if you allow them to mature a bit before planting in the ground.
