One important thing to note is that going into winter, our temperature drops are very gradual, giving time for my other subtropicals to harden. My citruses for example, like my supposedly cold-sensitive lemons, grapefruits and pummelos, usually survive prolonged exposure to 22 deg F temperature, when their published tolerance is around 28 to 30 deg F.

What I don't like is during late spring when we get those occassional arctic blasts, the temperature drops are very sudden and they wreck havoc on my plants.
