Will this die or will you be able to keep it going?

Mine is still in flower ... in a terracotta pot for the Winter months . . . . .

If it's a mild winter, it will be OK but another like the last two will kill it. Apparently, it never really shuts down for winter but grows very slowly in cooler conditions, but once the temperature falls below what it can cope with, it stops growing and dies

I did not realise that....might try it again, and take it in.
