There is a saying in Oz regarding Melbourne's weather - you are likely to get all four seasons in one day

My main concern was the type of winter protection this tree should have. Your winters sound very much like those in Norther California where we did not worry much about winter protection except that the trees did not get too wet or blown over by high winds.
