D. soennemarkii has proven very heat tolerant for me, growing outside over a pretty typical mid Atlantic summer. Typical daytime temps in the mid to upper 80s with a few stretches of 90F + temps, maxing out near 100F on occasion. Fortunately (for plants anyway) these hot stretches are usually accompanied by humidity in the 90% range. Night time drops average about 20F. In the pic, the large leaves were existing when the plant went out in May. Almost all of the smaller leaves towards the front are new growth since then:
