But the light intensity and temperatures in the warmer months in SA would provide an opportunity for fast growth, ripening and recovery that it wouldn't receive in Britain.
There is an orange tree or something similar growing outside in a tub just off Soho square in central London, I go past it every day. I think it was only put there fairly recently. It hasn't got any leaves just now. Let's see how it recovers.
