I dont really know what to do with it....will the foliage die down?...If so i will take it under cover for the winter.....

Well, it 'is' a perennial isn't it so ..... umm, yes, as it's in a pot you can bring it in and out, you're not tempted to plant it out ?
I don't know a lot about this one so that's why i was faultering there :-/

i have this but it`s planted in the border...it dies away in the winter & also seeds itself about quite a lot too...does tend to have lots of foliage rather than flowers!

I was led to believe it wasnt hardy.....Perhaps i could wrap it and place it near the house?

yes, good idea as it`s in a pot...

As I love hardy geraniums I googled for information, it is deciduous,Spritzhenry is really good with hardy geraniums as well.
