There are places in eastern Italy on the Adriatic sea with colder winters than Victoria, though technically those are Cfa climates, but to say that a PNW winter is impossible in the Mediterranean basin, that is wrong.
So winters are not an issue, it's the summers that are much cooler, particularly the nights, the only one that could pass for a climate on the Adriatic would be Portland, but still summer nights are much cooler.
Oh ,really? I don't know why but I thought that you preferred tropical climates. lol
well theoretically the coldest would be 0 C, any colder than that it will transition to the Dsb a good example of this is Dayton, WA with a Jan mean of 0.7 C, it's right on the cusp of being Csb/Csa/Dsb/Dsa

Mangoes i don't know if they grow there or not - why not if there is no frost to kill them ?
Oh sorry mate I forgot to answer this. In Tropical plants I was mostly meaning for species of palms and plants, but actually they are more subtropical than tropical.
Mangoes can't grow there (Scilly) because there is a lack of warmth. Same for Howeas and other (sub)tropical species.
Also some subtropical species: avocados, oranges, tangerines, etc. Maybe lemons can grow, but i'm not sure at all.

Tresco Abbey garden on the Isles of Scilly does have Howea's growing there & they do not need heat at all. They did have mature Archontophoenix too but they were killed in the winter of 1987, so they have younger palms there now.
