I live in Tucson, AZ. Summers get hot, 100 plus. Keep it in west facing window that has tint. My Fukien tea tree, I believe, is in a dilemma I just don't know where to put it, and now it's dropping leaves.

The temperature of boiling water. I'd keep it far away from that.

Welcome to the forum, Duval.
I guess the dilema is not of the plant, but yours, as the plant knows very well it likes to be outside, to be watered properly, and protected from the harsh direct midday sun (open shade is ideal in the summer).
Inside it will suffer and eventually die, unfortunately!

Every time I read "my plant is outside in 30 degrees temperature and freezing" I get very, very confused.
