Though I have not tried planting this species out, I have seen it in nature many times, and it has a very big distribution from southern Namibia down to the Little Karoo. It could very well be that its hardiness varies with place of origin. At RBG, we grow the related T. dinteri, and it has proven a good garden subject if provided with good drainage and not given too much summer water. It roots readily from cuttings, so it makes sense that T. paniculatus would too.
