Mine did fine last summer as a juvenile plant in 75- 85 F. But start it in some semi-shade for a couple week so you can let it adjust so you do not burn the leafs in the noon sun.
Our summer night lows are around 45-50ish F and my SDC was actively putting on leafs.
My plant transpires when it is it happiest it seems.
