Default Gros Michel Cold Tolerance?

Hi

I was wondering if Gros Michel can be grown outdoors in a warm temperate or cool subtropical climate. I see people mentioning that they are not cold tolerant but can't find any concrete evidence of people having them outside. I am about 30 degrees south in the border between suptopics and warm temperate. Cavendish grows fine but throws out one or two stunted leaves after winter passes (pausing growth throughout winter). Not sure how Michel would go.

Any advice or experiences would be appreciated

Thank you!
