Im not sure enough is known about this plant to answer most of thoes questions. But they are apparently very good potted plants because they stay so small. I wouldnt expose it to frost unless you have a backup because you would more than likely be the first person to test that. I do know u gotta get that seed out of water and in the dirt though lol.

Find out where the tree is found and look at the weather zone it is in.

Most eugenia are ok down to 32f - some lower - but I wouldn't gamble on it. Other than involcrata, all my eugenia suffer and drop all their leaves during 9b winter if I leave them outside. They get REAL ugly if it drops below 25f and you'll get severe branch die back.

Langsdorfii is a cerrado species. The lowest the cerrado gets is 50f.

Because Langsdorfii seeds are so cheap I would risk it and let us know. :)
