Your change of latitude is similar to San Francisco to San Pedro Sula, Honduras.  On our Atlantic coast, Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina (surf temperature currently 8.3 C, air 1.4).  We've got Clerodendrum quadriloculare from somewhere in the Philippines flowering now.  

 

Fla. climate center: 100-119 days>85 F
USDA 1990 hardiness zone 9B
Current USDA hardiness zone 10a
4 km inland from Indian River; 27º N (equivalent to Brisbane)

Central Orlando's urban heat island may be warmer than us

Any updates on this thread? I'm jealous of your move to the Australian tropics. I decided I wanted to move to Queensland when I was 12 (26 years ago), but it never happened. The closest I got were some informal discussions about a postdoc in the Queensland tropics right after grad school. I'm loving Florida (America's Queensland, I guess), but we don't have giant flightless birds running around here, so Queensland wins :-)

I'd love to see more pix of your plants and any critters that now inhabit them!
