Thanks Linda ,as a rule I always dig mine up , after the frost blackens their foliage , then leave them to dry out on a bench in the greenhouse then sit them in a little dry compost in a tray , and just keep a check on them for mould ,this year I dont know what happened ,but I lost most of them , but I did leave three ..by mistake.. still in the ground ,well these three managed to survive the winter ,so this year I am going to leave them all ....fingers crossed they survive
I think that if you live far south you,ll be able to get your,s through winter ,but if it,s growing in a pot Id put it in the greenhouse for some protection hope thats of some help ....

Thanks Janette. I left mine in the ground but they all died, mind you we did have an exceptionally cold and long winter.
