If you google that bush name, the hardiness information will come up:

Hardiness:
USDA Zone 9a: to -6.6 °C (20 °F)
USDA Zone 9b: to -3.8 °C (25 °F)
USDA Zone 10a: to -1.1 °C (30 °F)
USDA Zone 10b: to 1.7 °C (35 °F)

It cannot be grown in this area. According to Howard, The Deer Scam company is experimenting with a new repellent and the preliminary results are strongly positive. You may want to give them a call.
