I've heard somewhere that Brazilian does better than the others in cooler summer climates, but don't take my word for it. If I remember correctly, a fellow from Pennsylvania on this forum claims to have overwintered a brazilian plant succesfully outside. As far as I know, no "brazilian" cultivars are available on the european market, but maybe I will get my hands on some since some friends are going to Florida tomorrow. (I told them what to smuggle!) Rajapuri seems to try pushing out all leaves at once in climates such as the pacific northwest and UK. Orinoco is also said to be less than optimal for the UK climate.
California gold is a cultivar that I must say I have not completely understood...
