Is it possible to even grow these outdoors in Texas?

I'm an outdoors grower (east-facing apartment balcony) and I'd love to pick one of these up, but the low temperature indicators have me skeptical. I could put it behind a 30% shadecloth and far in the back to reduce the light, but temperature??? It's 80-100 1/3 of the year here in Austin TX. I'd heard there were ways to keep the roots of a plant cooler, but haven't found out how. Perhaps if I pot it in an unglazed clay pot? And that inside another clay pot?
