Do you know what species your alocasia is
@elvins the most common alocasia in Australia is brisbaniensis (I probably misspelled that). It became naturalized in tropical Australia many moons ago.
Alocasias come from SE Asia. The majority come from Tropical Borneo, but a large group also arises from the Philippines, others in Malaysia and some as far up as the Yunnan Provence of China. They became naturalized in Australia in the early days when import and export laws in your country were not so strict.
It may be totally possible that the one you have might be fine. Finding out the species would help you be able to better research and know that.
I've been told by friends in Australia that the USDA climate zone system has no use there, because Australia is more like California. There are many microclimates. The US and Puerto Rico use the half step zone system. Sally lives in 7b. Tiffany in 8b. I live in 9a. That means I have the warmest climate. The cold hardiness zones here end at 11a, which is Key West. Key West is still NOT in the true tropics.
California has 26 zones because they have so many microclimates, and nowhere in Cali is considered true tropics either.
Australia, however, does have areas that are in the true tropics.
