Because I heard they only survive -5C which is 23F but I hear a lot things and find they aren't necessarily true 😆

Yes it survived, and we have gotten down to 8 degrees F, a few yrs ago. And this winter we got down to 15 degrees. It has made it through, no problem.
Wow that's super cold we don't usually have it anywhere that cold, looks like I will definitely pop it in the ground then. More space for overwintering avocados and citrus then 🙂
Its planted in the ground, and does have some mulch around it.
